Title: Emergence of ‘International Environmental Law’: As a New Branch of International Public Law
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze the challenges and opportunities for the development of environmental law. This article is a brief description of international environmental law as a new branch of public law. Further, it attempts to provide some knowledge on the sources and principles of environmental law. The environmental problems in the contemporary world are amongst the most urgent that requires an immediate collective response from the states. Since the environment is a trans-boundary issue, a single country's effort is not enough, but all countries have to collaborate. In this regard, the solution may be twofold: either work together on having an instrument or at least give similar concern to environmental problems in domestic environmental law. As we all are living together on this planet, the best way is, yet, working together on implementing environmental law.
