Course Summary

Environmental law has several peculiarities that distinguish it from other areas of jurisprudence.
First, an understanding of the natural sciences makes the need for environmental law clearer, so an understanding of the mechanisms of various environmental problems is necessary when studying environmental law.
Second, because environmental issues are common to all mankind and need to be resolved, communication among experts and citizens from a wide variety of fields is necessary.
And it can be said that environmental law is a discipline that looks to the future and requires the creation of rules that will enable future generations to have a better life.
This lecture will examine how the law can be used to address environmental issues and solve problems, and will introduce a comprehensive coverage of environmental law from a legal policy perspective. The program will identify the characteristics and challenges of the current system from the "perspective of future generations" and work with participants to find solutions to these issues.
