About the Law: Environmental law consists of a wide variety of legislation, enactments, and provisions that are chiefly concerned with the regulation of human activity concerning our natural environment and its various interconnected ecosystems. While everything that is encompassed in environmental law may not directly intersect with each other, they all act as safeguards in preventing environmental damage and ensuring effective management of the environment and its multiple ecosystems. Environmental law and legislation are central in protecting us humans as well as the different plants and animals in the greater ecosystem that we exist in.
