Paper Details

This study paper looks at the link between environmental justice and human rights in order to make sure that environmental rights and responsibilities are shared fairly on a global, national, and regional level. Disparities in who is responsible for what in the environment, being left out of decisions, and not getting enough money to fix problems caused by unfair affects are what environmental justice problems are all about. We show in this study that taking natural resources without permission can be a violation of basic human rights and that environmental unfairness often happens at the same time as human rights violations. Through a thorough analysis of the literature, the study looks at the legal and policy points of view, as well as the socio-economic impacts, stakeholder points of view, problems, and successful grassroots movements for environmental justice. The water disaster in Flint, Michigan, and the protests against the Standing Rock Pipeline are both examples of environmental injustices that hurt people's rights. The last part of the study suggests taking action to make environmental justice a human right. Some of these actions are getting people in the community involved, making laws better, and working together with other countries. To fix systemic inequality, push for fair resource sharing, and fight for policies that protect everyone's and every community's health, the study stresses how important it is to understand the connection between-environmental justice and human rights
