Critics Review
‘An excellent example of what innovative progress in environmental law can look like.’ – Martin Kment, New Zealand Journal of Environmental Law
‘What is the future of environmental law? You might find answers, and at least insightful hints, from this wonderful literature. This book examines, based on analysis of previous experiences of environmental law, the possible challenges and innovative development of environmental law at international, regional and national levels. I believe the book could provide valuable insights to decision-makers and academia.’ – Tianbao Qin, Wuhan University, China
‘This important collection shows how environmental law has made many advances over the past decades, but that it does not adequately protect the planet yet. A wide range of excellent contributions covering many topics show a way forward towards more effective environmental law.’ – Jonathan Verschuuren, Tilburg Law School, the Netherlands
