Environmental laws are a collective term that describes the network of the treaties, statutes, common, and the customary and regulation laws that address the effect of the human activity in the natural environment. The environmental law can be defined as a type of laws that are a concern with environment and protection of natural resources. They are the combination of Federal, international treaty and the State. The environmental laws concern the issues of pollution of both air, water, and soil. The environmental laws regulate the number of air pollutants in the atmosphere. Environmental laws are meant to protect the human health. In matters of water, the environmental laws regulate the pollution in the water sources. In United State, the person who administers the environmental regulations is the Environmental Protection Agency. States in the United State have their own agencies for administering environmental rules. Environmental law is divided into pollution control and remediation conservation of the natural resources. There are several sources of environmental law that are mostly influenced by the international treaties. The treaties mostly pertain matters like the prohibition of hunting of the endangered species and reducing the greenhouse gas emission. The environmental law violators are handled in a civil way and they are entitled to a fine and to civil damages to the injured parties.
