Protection of The Human Right to A Healthy Environment in Europe

Anca Ileana Dusca, Simina Badea

Abstract :

The article aims to highlight that, although international, European and national documents entrench sustainable development, environmental protection and, as a consequence, the human right to a healthy environment as features of the contemporary era, reality is actually different. This is proved by the serious environmental accidents, the extreme weather phenomena all over the world, along with the painful discovery that the odyssey of damages lasts for years even in the case of famous catastrophes [1]. We believe that the above–mentioned reality might be changed by imposing more serious sanctions, including penalties under criminal law, by the adoption of a European Environmental Code, of an International Environmental Code and by the establishment of a Court of the United Nations for the Environment.
