principles of sustainable environment and development.Increasing environmental
problems also underline the need for environmental measures and efforts are
made to include environmental provisions in constitutions, laws and regulations
to legally guarantee it’s environmental values.Principles regarding the
prevention of environmental pollution, protection and improvement of the
environment, protection and use of natural resources are established.Laws

environment and regulations that have gained a global dimension depending on
the rules that require international solidarity contribute to the development
of environmental law.
Environmental protection and pollution issues
affect not only the countries that cause pollution, but also other states and
people in the world.As a result of this, various regulatory studies and
agreements on environmental protection and pollution control have been put
forward due to the almost mandatory need to enact some provisional regulations
regarding the environment.

is the approach focused on the prevention of possible damages.Apart from this,
removing the pollution that has already occurred is an extremely important
issue.
