Detailed Solution
The World Summit on Sustainable Development was held in 2002 in Johannesburg, South Africa.
In this summit 190 countries pledged their commitment to achieve, by 2010, a significant reduction in the current rate of biodiversity loss at global, regional and local levels.
It followed the historic Convention on Biological Diversity (The Earth Summit) held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992.
So Brazil is linked with the 1992 Earth Summit, not the 2002 summit.
The 2002 summit was held in South Africa.
