Transnational Alignment Of Nongovernmental Organizations For Global Environmental Action, Maria Garner
Transnational Alignment Of Nongovernmental Organizations For Global Environmental Action, Maria Garner
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
This Note proposes an alternative to the current international legal system for addressing the worldwide environmental crisis. The author describes the conditions of the environment and argues that the current legal system is incapable of responding to the already severe global environmental crisis. The author suggests that a network of environmental nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) can obtain results that are currently beyond the capabilities of either individual states or traditional international organizations.

Federalism And Comprehensive Environmental Reform: Seeing Beyond The Murky Medium, Rodney Northey
Federalism And Comprehensive Environmental Reform: Seeing Beyond The Murky Medium, Rodney Northey
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
This article examines the legal constraints that Canadian federalism places on comprehensive environmental reforms. Having specific regard for the Canadian Environmental Protection Act and its regulation of toxic substances, the article questions the ability of federal constitutional powers to support a broad scope for the statute. The article then examines two approaches to this problem. First, it examines an alternative vision of federalism which provides the federal government with broad environmental authority. Secondly, it examines various mechanisms of federal-provincial cooperation for their application to comprehensive environmental schemes. It concludes that these options provide enough scope to regulate environmental activities comprehensively …
