This two-volume collection of documents is intended as acompanion to the textbook Principles of International Law I. It includes all the key international legal instruments in the field, including those adopted and signed at the UN Conference on Environment and Development in June 1992.
The book covers key treaties, acts of international organisations and many more, on subjects such as: protection of the atmosphere, marine environment, freshwater resources, biodiversity, liability, trade and environment and hazardous activities. Each document is introduced by a short summary, and each treaty is accompanied by up-to-date information on its legal status.
