Law School Impacts

YOUR SCHOOL IMPACTS

Your impact is both direct, meaning the effect is felt where you are, and also indirect. e.g. When you switch on a light, the illumination will have an impact - on your eyes, while the indirect impact is at the power stations which pollute the water and air, that contributes to global warming. While @ CUL, each of the schools will create similar sorts of impacts - from normal business and office operations. However, there will be specific impacts arising from the activites associated with those schools.

Virtually everything we do uses Raw materials and Energy, needs Food and Transport, and produces Waste.

SPECIAL LAW SCHOOL IMPACTS

The legal prcoess does not create particularly sspecial environmentla impacts. Its usual busines requires buildings like courts and prisons, and energy and transport between them.

However the law has a particular role in determining what constitutes significant envirnmental impacts - whether to individuals or to the planet as a whole. There is a form of international law - although no international envionment court, that ensures that agreements made by memebrs of the United Nations are carried out. Multilateral Environmental Agreements require that countries develop specific implementation mechanisms and fulfill obligations involving reporting, training, public education, and other activities. The MEA themes lie at the heart of global environmental issues such as CO2 reduction, eco-efficiency, land degradation, energy systems and technology innovation.

Most countries have legal systems that involve Environmental Impacts Assessments in order to implement the requirements of the MEAs.
