| Summary: | Environmental protection is one of the main concerns of contemporary society, being at thesame time, a challenge for the current millennium, if we consider the countless events that had animpact upon the environment. All the above have determined the international society to rethink therelation with the environment, being aware of the fact that the man is an intrinsic part of it. One of theproblems of present interest is the liability for environmental prejudices. Activities such as nuclearpower production, oil transportation, and different industrial processes have positive effects, benefits,however, in certain situations they can cause damages, not only to the state where it takes place, butalso to other states. This paper regards a topic analyzed by other authors as well, but we emphasizedbased on analysis and case study certain features of international environmental liability. Inconclusion, we can say that, although the current international legal instruments on environmentalprotection are in force, they are not properly applied by states’ parties, on the one hand, and on theother it is not still in force an international liability regime for environmental damage.
