The Principle Of Preventing Environmental Damage -Legal Study-

Abstract

This study aims to elucidate various aspects of the principle of preventing environmental damage and to determine how it can be applied in developmental projects and activities in a manner that allows for development while avoiding environmental harm. The study employs a descriptive-analytical methodology, complemented by an inductive approach in presenting the research problem.

The ambiguity of the prevention principle is highlighted due to its significant overlap with the precautionary principle and the lack of genuine intent, especially in the developing world, to apply it amidst the severe spread of pollution, particularly in waste management and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. This necessitates increased efforts and encouragement for its widespread application.
