Working Environment

Technology, Law, and the Working Environment

Revised Edition

Routledge-Giappichelli Studies in Law

This edited book focuses on how States should regulate activities in space and explores strategies to advance State responsible behaviour to ensure sustainable use and effective protection of outer space for peaceful purposes. The time seems ripe to bring international law into the space sustainability discourse. The concept of sustainable development was conceptualized by the 1987 Brundtland Report, Our Common Future. Today, as then, the overlap between the security, environmental and economic dimensions, including in terms of intra/inter-generational equity, is reflected within the current 'new space' era that is now 'our common future'. This edited book collects original theoretical and empirical contributions. It contributes to unpack the international outer space regulatory framework in the light of current trends and pressing challenges. This offers a unique perspective and guidance thus empowering regulatory strategies for stakeholders and end-users such as scholars, policy-makers, industry and society.

Assessing Natural Resource Damages: An Economic Perspective serves as a comprehensive guide to assessing environmental damages resulting from oil spills and hazardous-substance releases. With more than 2,000 oil spills annually into US navigable waters, new Natural Resource Damages (NRD) claims arise each year. Most of the over 1,100 hazardous-waste sites listed as Superfund sites in the US have NRD claims underway or will eventually face such claims. Finally, tens of thousands of other hazardous-waste sites across the country are facing or may face NRD claims. This book fills a significant gap in the literature, offering insights into recent advancements in economic methods and tools, and highlights the scientific and legal issues that typically arise in an NRD assessment. Catering to economists, scientists, attorneys, and educators across the United States and Europe, where similar assessment processes exist, this book serves as an invaluable resource for navigating the complexities of NRD cases now and into the future.<ul> <li>Includes more than 50 case studies, summarizing specific oil spills or hazardous substance releases, enhancing comprehension of the theme of each chapter</li> <li>Serves as a comprehensive resource on Natural Resource Damages, offering new information and citing hundreds of peer-reviewed journal articles from the last 35 years</li> <li>Includes an appendix with a comprehensive bibliography on NRD-related legal articles, in addition to an appendix providing a bibliography on the Habitat Equivalency Analysis (HEA) and Resource Equivalency Analysis (REA) methodologies, catering to scientists involved in NRD assessments</li> </ul>

Assessing Natural Resource Damages

Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) is a conservation approach designed to ensure that any development or land-use change results in a measurable increase in biodiversity compared to the baseline conditions prior to the project. This concept transcends the traditional mitigation of environmental impacts, emphasising the enhancement and restoration of ecosystems and biodiversity. Biodiversity Net Gain Law and Practice provides a comprehensive understanding of the legal frameworks and policies that govern the protection and enhancement of biodiversity. This book explores the intersection of environmental, planning, and development laws and highlight how these regulations work together to ensure sustainable development and conservation efforts. It looks at key legislation such as the Planning Act 2008, the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, and the National Planning Policy Framework. Through case studies, legal analysis, and policy discussions, this book illustrates the practical applications and challenges of implementing biodiversity laws, and compares their success in the UK, Europe, India, Australia, Japan and South Africa. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Environmental Law online service.

Biodiversity Net Gain Law and Practice

Multilateral environmental agreements have over the last four decades emerged as the preferred avenue to address inter-state environmental issues such as climate change. This book analyses the possibilities as well as the limitations of environmental treaty making between states. The book considers the structures and processes that lead to the successful adoption of the Paris Agreement - and contrasting them with other attempts that failed in bringing states together under a legally-binding solution. Christina Voigt explores the whole "life-cycle" of multilateral environmental agreements. Also emphasised is the impact of emerging economies in shaping international environmental regimes.

Multilateralism has been increasingly accepted as the modus operandi in world politics, and in global environmental politics in particular. International environmental law in the form of multilateral environmental agreements has over the last four decades emerged as the preferred avenue to address inter-state environmental issues that either cross state boundaries, materialize beyond national jurisdictions or are of genuinely global nature such as climate change.This book analyses the possibilities as well as the limitations of environmental treaty making between states. The book considers the structures and processes that lead to the successful adoption of the Paris Agreement – and contrasting them with other attempts that failed in bringing states together under a legally-binding solution. Christina Voigt explores the whole "life-cycle" of multilateral environmental agreements, from diplomatic exchanges, to treaty negotiations, to analyses of the treaty text, non-compliance mechanisms and finally to recourse to courts. It also emphasises the strong impact of the sovereign powers of emerging economies such as China and Brazil on the shaping of international environmental regimes.

Studies in Private International Law - Asia

This book discusses private international law rules relevant to environmental disputes in Asia that involve corporations, surveys 12 Asian jurisdictions, and proposes areas for reform. The volume is split into two sections. The first of these is dedicated to framing and discussing specific issues, such as the liability of corporations, directors and investors for environmental wrongdoing, or the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgements and awards on environmental disputes - and how domestic rules may affect private international law. The second section outlines the rules of select Asian jurisdictions that are relevant to environmental disputes involving corporations, and suggests areas for reform. Jurisdictions covered include China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. Jurisdiction-specific chapters outline the private international law rules of select Asian jurisdictions that are relevant to environmental disputes involving corporations, and suggest areas for reform. Jurisdictions include: Indonesia; Thailand; Singapore; Malaysia; Philippines; Vietnam; China; Hong Kong; Taiwan; India; Japan and South Korea.

Environment Act 2021

This book explores the emergence of ecological sustainability as a new EU policy and legal objective, distinct and autonomous from sustainable development. It argues that sustainability can no longer be conflated into sustainable development only, but should rather be represented as a plural construction, in which ecological sustainability coexists next to sustainable development. While the latter orientates most of the regulatory measures stemming from the Green Deal, the former is playing an increasingly relevant role in a number of legislative initiatives. The volume considers whether and how the EU legislator is exploiting the new opportunities brought forth by the redefinition of sustainability. To do so, a thematic approach is adopted and the inquiry is organized in five different parts, each devoted to one specific transition triggered by the European Green Deal. Navigating the dynamics of the many transitions occurring in the horizon of European climate neutrality, key chapters shed light on the EU regulatory schemes through which ecological sustainability is in the process of being operationalized and critically discuss their points of strength, weaknesses and underlying tensions. In doing so, they provide an overview of the legal changes occurring in areas of topical interest such as agri-food, energy, digitalization, corporate governance and intellectual property, as well as a number of insights on the relevance of ecological sustainability for the internal dynamism of the European Green Deal. This extensive and innovative appraisal of the field will prove a stimulating read for academics, researchers and advanced students interested in the new ecological law stemming from the Green Deal, the changing features of sustainability and the relevance of the Green Deal as a regulatory project.

This book is an essential foundation text for oil and gas law as an area that has developed over the last decades, and considers its relevance to the UK oil and gas industry, with the UK government's commitments to reach net zero emissions by 2050. Split into four parts, the book considers the general framework of the International oil and gas industry; offers practical information on the overall UKCS framework; provides useful guidance on how to negotiate and review oil and gas contracts; and examines the future of the UKCS Oil and Gas industry. The Third Edition has been fully updated to include: - New rules for oil and gas drilling - The landmark case of R (Finch on behalf of the Weald Action Group &amp; Others) v. Surrey County Council (&amp; Others) - Technological advances - The UK's plans to reach net zero by 2050 Oil and Gas Law in the UK is written in a clear and reader-friendly style and includes detailed appendices on cross-boundary agreements and guidance on disputes. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Environmental Law online service.

Oil and Gas Law in the UK

Recht der Nachhaltigen Entwicklung

In response to the pervasive destruction of nature-particularly as a result of anthropogenic climate change-there have been increasingly forceful calls, from a legal-philosophical perspective, to grant nature rights of its own. Yet this demand for rights remains tied to the system of subjective rights; it is a liberal line of argument that conceives of freedom (only) in terms of subjective rights and in their guise.
 

 What is sometimes overlooked is that positive law is capable, even without recognizing rights of nature, of conferring highly personal legal positions on individual animals. For example, the prohibition on killing under species protection law effectively granted protected animals something akin to an individual right to life.
 

 However, this status has been progressively curtailed, precisely under the influence of climate change. The new regulation on assessing the risk of killing individuals of collision-prone breeding bird species through the operation of wind turbines (§ 45b of the Federal Nature Conservation Act) is perhaps the most striking example of this development, as it now permits such risks even while accepting "socially adequate risks of loss." Such a provision can no longer be reconciled with the notion of autonomous rights of the affected animals: how can one ask a red kite whether it considers it worthwhile to risk its own life for the 1.5°C target? And who could claim to answer on its behalf?
 

 Against this background, the book argues that the concept of rights of nature is subject to fundamental objections. At the same time, it shows that the threat to animals and nature posed by climate change can be addressed more coherently-even in theoretical terms-through the (generous) granting of collective legal standing to associations. In this way, responsibility for defining and protecting the relevant legal interests is consistently assigned to the legislature.
