Abstract
The general theory of environmental orthodoxy is based on the idea that by introducing the issue of the environment and the need to protect and protect it in the constitution as a reference norm, we will see the establishment of the legal order in this field. In this chapter, an attempt has been made to analyze the content of the constitutions of Latin America in the context of environmental issues and the conservation of natural resources with a comparative approach and as an example. The basic hypothesis of this chapter is based on the fact that today, paying attention to the issue of the environment at the level of constitutions means following sub-norms and the legal system from the norm of reference and the effects that this right can have in the legal system. This is well reflected in the constitutions of Latin America.
