Summary: | The current study aims to explain the legal meaning of environment and the importance of protecting it from pollution as stated in international conventions and UAE law. Moreover, the study aims to unveil the legal penalties set to protect the environment from pollution in the UAE law. In addition, it attempts to identify the international responsibility for the pollution of the environment and ways for dissolving conflicts in the international law. It also aims to analyse to what extent international, regional and national endeavours contribute to protecting the environment from pollution. The importance of the issue of international responsibility for protecting the environment is due to some key aspects at the international or regional level or at a single country’s level within its geographical boundaries. This is because protecting the environment and the international responsibility towards the environment are associated within a certain scope. The problem of the study lies in the mechanisms for protecting the environment from pollution as stated by international conventions, and the legal penalties that provide effective environmental safety to further help in protecting the environment from the various pollutants. The researcher adopted a group of scientific methods that suit the current study namely, the descriptive approach, the inductive approach, and the deductive approach in order to shed light on the international, regional and national efforts that aim to protect the environment from pollution. Such efforts are invested to combat pollution at the international, regional and national levels to identify the main recognized legal maritime experiences and practices and come up with solutions, findings, and recommendations. The researcher concluded some findings, of which the most important one states that, international conferences and the resulting proceedings and charters of rich systems of texts and international and regional protocols help increase the international awareness about the danger of environmental problems. They also unify insights toward amending the environmental policies, and help find the best ways of protecting the environment. Most environmental conventions include rules that aim to stop the rise of environmental conflicts. They also stated the various means of peaceful reconciliation. The lack of organizations or courts that look into international environmental conflicts negatively affected the elimination and dissolution of such conflicts. The researcher provided some recommendations, the most important one states that, there should be strategies and policies, plans and regional and international integrated studies for dealing with issues of climate change and environmental pollution. He also recommended that there should be training programs for all specialized individuals in the field of environment pertaining to field reports of environmental problems, while providing and inventing solutions and ways of combating the given problem. Furthermore, a specialized environmental court that looks into environmental crimes should be set to categorize environmental crimes as vicious crimes and support the stated penalties for such violations and determine the international legal responsibility. |
