- Abstract
The scope of International Environmental Law is wide and diverse. Due to growing tendency of international trade and the transboundary consequences of pollution and natural resource degradation, environmental issues are now no longer domestic matter. But when we are attempting to decide the boundaries of environmental law, no specific definition may be applied. Like many different branches of international law, environmental regulation is interdisciplinary, intersecting and overlapping with several different areas of studies, including economics, political science,, ecology, human rights and navigation/admiralty. In spite of the proliferations of international environmental agreements, environmental hazards and new environmental challenges have continued to emerge due to the failure of apprehending inter-linkages between environmental problems with different international laws including human rights and humanitarian law. This paper focuses on issues relating to the International Environmental Law with other branches of Public International Law like Human Rights and Humanitarian law and their interlinking relation to promote and protect safe and healthy environment in the light of international instruments and few important cases in environmental fields.
