- Abstract
The paper discusses the impacts of structural changes in the Brazilian economy between 2000 and 2009 on emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). From the discussion of climate change and its relationship with GHG, and how this issue is treated in Brazil and the world, a GHG vector is built and the approach of vertically integrated sectors (subsystems) developed by Pasinetti (1973) is used. The analysis of the effects of changes in the economy on the environment, particularly on the GHG was conducted aiming to highlight the role of services and energy sectors. Among the conclusions, it is considered that Brazil has advanced in environmental issues, especially regarding the issue of deforestation, but also that the energy subsystems generate more GHG emissions than their respective sectors.
