description |
Precautionary principle is one of the pivotal principles in the realm of
International Environmental law. For insuring sufficient protection of the
environment, the Precautionary Approach requires states to take
comprehensive precautionary measures in line with their affordable
capabilities. Lack of ready access to definitive scientific facts and figures,
where there are threats of serious or irreversible damages, certainty may
not lay the foundation for evading effective measures be taken as to
safeguard environmental against degradation. Although many
international environmental instruments have made reference to the
principle, it is not well respected and adequately adhered to by
international tribunals. This paper seeks to examine the legal validity of
this principle before such tribunals. |
