Abstract

The year 2022 is significant for international environmental law (IEL) and governance as it marks the 50th anniversary of United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm, 40th anniversary of adoption of United Nations Convention on the Law Of the Sea (UNCLOS), 30th anniversary of Rio Declaration, and the adoption of UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and Convention on Biological Diversity. Despite these and numerous other international efforts, India is currently facing a number of environmental difficulties that distance us from meeting international commitments like Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Nonetheless, there is still a chance for us to overcome these problems through radical transformation. What was intended by the Indian Constitution is directly reflected in the country's environmental laws. India's constitutional system and international commitments both take into account the need for environmental preservation, protection, and sustainable resource usage. The study focuses on the legal provisions in this regard. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
