This discerning book examines the challenges, opportunities and
solutions for courts adjudicating on environmental cases. It offers
a critical analysis of the practice and judgments of courts from
various representative and influential jurisdictions. Through the
analysis and comparison of court practices and case law across
global domestic courts as varied as the National Green Tribunal in
India, the Land and Environment Court in Australia, and the
District Court of The Hague in the Netherlands, the expert
contributors bring together a wealth of knowledge in order to
enhance mutual learning and understanding towards an environmental
rule of law. In doing so, they illustrate that courts play a vital
role in the formation and crystallization of rulings and decisions
to protect and conserve the environment. Ultimately, they prove
that there are many lessons to be learnt from other legal systems
in seeking to maintain and enhance the environmental rule of law.
Contemporary and global in scope, Courts and the Environment is
essential reading for scholars and students of environmental law,
as well as judges, legal practitioners and policymakers interested
in understanding the legal challenges to and the legal basis for
protecting environmental values in courts. Contributors: A.
