About this book
Environmental Law and Sustainability introduces environmental regulations and agreements from around the world, with a focus on those with the most potential for international impact. This concise handbook, designed for use in classrooms at the high school and college level, compares legal systems between nations such as the United States and Canada; Australia and New Zealand; and India, Pakistan, and China, allowing readers to see how environmental laws are enacted - and enforced - differently around the globe. Other topics include biotechnology and nanotechnology legislation, and the "e;polluter pays"e; principle, a key aspect of international environmental policy.
