Biodiversity within the European Union is under threat. Almost a
quarter of Europe's vascular plant species and 155 species of its
native mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians are threatened with
extinction. The Habitats Directive imposes a strict regime for
environmental protection. But with the euro zone economy falling
from 'stagnation' to 'contraction' in the second quarter of 2012
and the UK entering into a 'double dip' recession in April 2012,
European governments face an economic crisis. The English courts
have said that the Directive should not become a property
developer's obstacle course. Yet the tensions between environmental
protection and economic growth are all too readily apparent with
the UK government stating both that we must 'arrest the decline in
habitats and species and the degradation of landscapes' and later
that 'gold plating of EU rules on things like habitats' was putting
'ridiculous costs' on business enterprise. Edited by Gregory Jones
QC, The Habitats Directive: A Developer's Obstacle Course? brings
together a unique combination of leading academics and
practitioners in the field of European environmental and planning
law to address and debate controversial issues arising from the
Habitats Directive in an authoritative and practical manner. A must
for anyone engaged in property development, planning and
environmental law.
