ENFORCEMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION REGULATIONS' CRIMINAL PENALTIES
Abstract
This paper explores the framework of criminal penalties and enforcement mechanisms under environmental protection regulations. It delves into the legal provisions that define criminal activities against the environment, the range of penalties imposed, and the effectiveness of these measures in deterring environmental crimes. Through an analysis of statutory laws, case studies, and enforcement practices, the paper assesses the role of criminal law in safeguarding natural resources and public health. It also examines the challenges faced by regulatory bodies in implementing these laws and offers recommendations for enhancing enforcement strategies. The findings highlight the critical need for robust legal frameworks and vigilant enforcement to combat environmental offenses and promote sustainable practices.
