Major components of environmental protection process
Abstract
Every law is realized due to practice processes. But there is a long way
having various components between law and practice. Theoretical
structure and practice process are two main components of protection of
the environment. Environment which means everything around human
includes both natural and cultural features. It should be protected as a
whole and the natural resources should not be exhausted. Environmental
law is only the beginning of environmental protection process. It
determines a theoretical frame including a number of rules regarding
environmental protection. The second component is environment sensitive
planning, which is a bridge between environmental law and practice, on
country, region and local scale. The third component of environmental
protection process and the first component of practice process is
governance. The concept of ``governance{''} which means the process of
decision-making and the process by which decisions are implemented or
not implemented is as old as human civilization. Local governance is of
great importance in environmental protection process. Environmentally
sensitive local administrations and environmentally sensitive community
that has environmental consciousness are essential components of good
governance. In this paper, importance of the components shortly
explained above and relations or interaction among each other in
environmental protection process have been considered and expressed.
