Abstract

Environmental law has developed in response to emerging awareness of and concern over issues impacting the entire world. While laws have developed piecemeal and for various reasons, some effort has gone into identifying key concepts and guiding principles common to environmental law as a whole. The principles discussed below are not exhaustive and are not universally recognized or accepted. Nonetheless, they represent essential principles for understanding environmental law around the world. This chapter describes the fundamental principles of environmental law on which the discipline is based. Also, it explains the basic concepts of environmental law and the relationship between principles and concepts.
