    Alpine Law Associates - Environment Pollution Law in Nepal

    Nepal’s Environment Protection Act, 2076 (2019) guarantees every citizen’s right to live in a clean and healthy environment. It mandates environmental impact assessments, sets pollution control standards for air, water, soil, and regulates hazardous substances.

  2. Loss of koala habitat shows ‘total failure’ of our nature laws. In 2025 alone, nearly 4,000 ha of essential koala habitat was cleared under federal approvals—the highest annual loss since koalas were first listed in 2012. Since 2011, a staggering 2.3 million hectares of likely koala habitat has been destroyed—with 391,170 ha of that in NSW through native forest logging. Agriculture continues to be the primary driver, and loopholes and weak enforcement mean koalas keep paying the price. Conservationists are calling for real reform of the EPBC Act—including closing native logging exemptions and creating an independent environmental watchdog.

  7. Fix Australia’s broken environmental laws to stop the rapid loss of nature

    "Labor warned to clamp down on biodiversity offsets in environment law overhaul."

    "The Australian government should significantly constrain the use of biodiversity offsets under its environmental law reform agenda and stop them being used for critically endangered wildlife, according to a report by a partnership of 11 universities."

    "It recommended that offsets focused on restoring and creating new habitat and so-called “averted loss” offsets – which involve protecting existing habitat – be abolished."

    “We know that the existing system has relied heavily on biodiversity offsets, and that this has failed to stem the destruction of nature in Australia."

  12. Der Konflikt im Nahen Osten verdrängt die #Ukraine aus den Schlagzeilen. Doch der russische Angriffskrieg geht weiter – mit horrenden Folgen nicht nur für Menschen, sondern auch für Natur und Umwelt. Die frühere EU-Kommissarin Margot Wallström will den russischen „Ökozid“ aufklären und der Ukraine dabei helfen, Russland zur Rechenschaft zu ziehen.
