Activity
2.2
You
are not expected to become an environmental legal expert in
a couple of hours. Instead you will look at environmental law
to help recognise what environmental impacts society considers
are significant. You are expected to have an idea of the main
environmental principles, the most important environmental laws,
and where to go for more help
Task 1 requires you to look through the existing text on UK
and European environmental law and choose any aspects of work
to see what laws may apply to them. You are required to identify
the laws, relating to land, air and water (and combined) that
may relate to those aspects and whether there have been any
prosecutions or warnings. |
Task 2 recognises that you will
need help now and in the future to keep abreast of environmental
laws.
The most accessible web source
is Netregs, created by the Environment Agency. You can investigate
and collect various sources of information that you can use
in the future to keep abreast of law changes.
Find the regulations that may apply to your workplace - go
to Netregs, where you can also check out forthcoming legislation.
