Acid Rain and Ozone Layer Depletion: International Law and Regulation

By Jutta Brunnée

Although acid rain and ozone layer depletion are highly-publicized issues, they have not received the legal attention they warrant. This detailed analysis fills this gap. With a thorough scientific background and a review of technically feasible countermeasures, it addresses the applicable rules of international law, exposing the tension between the traditional concept of sovereignty and the need for international cooperation.Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.
