Miljølovgivning, transportlovgivning og planlægningsret: generelt

Klimaændringerne rammer nu med ubønhørlig kraft. Samtidig eskalerer den økonomiske ulighed mellem mennesker i de fleste lande. Denne dobbelte har udløst to bevægelser: De unges klimaoprør for at få forældregenerationen til at tage ansvar samt et spirende socialt oprør med krav om retfærdig omfordeling – tilsammen et krav om grundlæggende forandringer af måden, vi har indrettet økonomien og samfundet på. I SOM GJALDT DET LIVET advarer Jørgen Steen Nielsen om de truende perspektiver, beskriver det nye oprør og appellerer om reaktivering af demokratiet og aktiv inddragelse af borgerne som eneste vej ud af den dobbelte krise. Er det muligt? ”Vi ved ikke, at det er umuligt,” svarer forfatteren. Jørgen Steen Nielsen (f. 1952) er biolog, forfatter, tidligere chefredaktør og mangeårig miljøjournalist på Dagbladet Information, hvor han har dækket den økologiske krise i mere end 30 år. Vinder af Cavlingprisen i 2003. Forfatter til Fra Frihedens slagmarker (2004), Den store omstilling – fra systemkrise til grøn økonomi (2012), På den anden side – en rejse i omstillingens grænseland (2015), og Hvad skal vi med landbruget? (2016).

Den sidste kommenterede vejlov var udarbejdet af landsdommer E.A. Abitz og udkom i 1981. Selvom vejlovgivningen ikke ændres dagligt, er der dog sket en del i de mellemliggende knap 40 år. Der er i denne kommentar taget udgangspunkt i den nye hovedlov fra 2014. Lovkommentaren er skrevet som et praktisk redskab for de mange mennesker, der dagligt arbejder i vejsektoren og for borgere, der skal kende deres rettigheder og pligt og endelig til afklaring af forskellige juridiske problemstillinger.

We need to act five times faster to tackle climate change before it is too late. A policy insider, Simon Sharpe provides compelling ideas on how to rethink our strategies and reorganise our efforts in the fields of science, diplomacy, and economics to speed up progress in addressing climate change.

NY MYTEBOG OM VEJR OG KLIMA!Måske kender du dilemmaet: Bliver jeg mere våd af at løbe gennem regn, end hvis jeg går? Svaret finder du i bogen 100 myter om vejr og klima.Vejret har eksisteret længe før mennesket, men lige så længe vi mennesker har eksisteret, har vi været påvirket af vejret. Derfor er der efterhånden utroligt mange myter om vejr og klima, og rigtig mange informationer at holde styr på. Hvad er vås og hvad er virkelighed?I 100 myter om vejr og klima tager forfatterne hånd om 100 velkendte myter, der på en humoristisk, videnskabelig og letforståelig måde behandles og dømmes enten sande eller falske – både dem om CO2, torden, snevejr, Antarktis og Amazonas, og alt derimellem. Findes der fx to ens snefnug eller ej? Kan gigtpatienter virkelig mærke, at et omskift i vejret er på vej? Og er det solpletter, der er hovedårsagen til klimaforandringerne, eller er Antarktis faktisk ved at blive større?

Få overblik over maritime retsforhold.Sørettens område spænder vidt fra privatretlige over offentligretlige til folkeretlige regler. Lærebogen Søret tilbyder en grundig gennemgang af maritime retsforhold inden for disse områder og behandler bl.a.: SkibsregistreringSøpant og kontraktspantForureningsansvarTransportansvarBjærgning.Nyt i 4. udgaveOmfanget af bogen er udvidet betydeligt siden 1.-udgaven, og titlen er derfor blevet ændret fra Introduktion til Søretten til Søret kort og godt. Yderligere er der siden 3.-udgaven sket vigtige ændringer inden for de retsområder, bogen behandler, og Danmark har tiltrådt en række internationale konventioner, som allerede er blevet indarbejdet i søloven. Disse ændringer er behandlet og kommenteret i bogen. MålgruppeUd over at fungere som lærebog for studerende er bogen også velegnet for praktikere i transportbranchen – f.eks. advokater, rederiansatte og speditører. Om forfatterneSøret, 4. udgave, er udarbejdet af advokat Lars Rosenberg Overby (Kromann Reumert) i samarbejde med professor dr. jur. Thor Falkanger og professor dr.jur. Hans Jacob Bull, begge tilknyttet Institutt for Sjørett, universitetet i Olso. Lars Rosenberg Overby er specialiseret i transportret. Han har tidligere været ekstern lektor ved Københavns Universitet og bidraget til forskellige værker om transportret.

Da Prometheus ifølge myten bragte ilden til jorden, blev menneskeheden på samme tid skænket en gave og en forbandelse. I Prometheus’ anger fortæller den tyske filosof Peter Sloterdijk (f. 1947) historien om vores bemægtigelse af ilden – fra årtusinders tilberedning af mad og hærdning af værktøj til industrialiseringens afbrænding af den dybe fortids ”forstenede og kondenserede hyper-urskove”.Hvis Prometheus vendte tilbage til jorden i dag, ville han sandsynligvis fortryde sin gave. For intet mindre end ekpyrosis, verdens totale undergang i ild, truer. Og kun en ny ”energetisk pacifisme” kan ifølge Sloterdijk forhindre denne katastrofe.

Utraditionelle huse med særlig byggemåde. I årene 1947 til 1955 støttede den danske stat enfamiliehuse med alternative materialevalg og nye måder at bygge på for at løse efterkrigstidens boligkrise. Elementhusene var af træ eller beton i tidens enkle arkitektur, og deres kompakte volumen sparede materialer. De ser ret almindelige ud, men det krævede pionerånd og mod fra producenter, arkitekter, håndværkere og bygherrer at involvere sig i dette ukendte byggeri. I Elementhuse fortæller restaureringsarkitekten Dorthe Bendtsen hele den tankevækkende historie og præsenterer en del af de huse, der stadig eksisterer, og som ofte indgår i attraktive boligkvarterer. Bogen peger på, hvordan fortidens begrænsninger kan inspirere os, når vi skal håndtere nutidens kriser – blandt andet ved at bruge mindre og bo på færre kvadratmeter.

Dieses Open-Access-Buch fragt, ob die alten Begründungen, mit denen Tiere traditionell aus der Rechtsgemeinschaft ausgeschlossen wurden, noch tragen und zeigt, welche Fragen sich heute stellen.Die Grenzen der Rechtsgemeinschaft sind brüchig geworden und werden gegenwärtig neu verhandelt. Welche Konzepte prägen das Recht im Hinblick auf Tiere und wie sind aktuelle Entwicklungen einzuordnen? Das Buch wandelt auf den Spuren, die Tiere hinterlassen haben auf ihrem Weg zum derzeitigen rechtlichen Status und es wagt einen Ausblick auf die Frage, wohin dieser Weg führen könnte oder sollte.

Climate Liberalism examines the potential and limitations of classical-liberal approaches to pollution control and climate change. Some successful environmental strategies, such as the use of catch-shares for fisheries, instream water rights, and tradable emission permits, draw heavily upon the classical liberal intellectual tradition and its emphasis on property rights and competitive markets. This intellectual tradition has been less helpful, to date, in the development or design of climate change policies. Climate Liberalism aims to help fill the gap in the academic literature examining the extent to which classical-liberal principles, including an emphasis on property rights, decentralized authority and dynamic markets, can inform the debate over climate-change policies. The contributors in this book approach the topic from a range of perspectives and represent multiple academic disciplines. Chapters consider the role of property rights and common-law legal systems in controlling pollution, the extent to which competitive markets backed by legal rules encourage risk minimization and adaptation, and how to identify the sorts of policy interventions that may help address climate change in ways that are consistent with liberal values.

Jorden skrider under os – både i figurativ og bogstavelig forstand. Naturens mange kriser tvinger os til at sætte spørgsmålstegn ved den måde, vi behersker og udnytter vores naturlige miljøer, andre dyrearter og andre menneskers livsformer, rettigheder og arbejdskraft. Under strømmen af naturkatastrofer vokser samtidig en afgrund af sorg, pessimisme og lammelse i både tænkning og handling. Vi har akut brug for nye og mindre besidderiske greb om vores natur, nye måder at se og behandle den på. Her kan den humanistiske og politiske tænkning være med til at skabe en intellektuel orientering og tænke tidens betingelser i nye konstellationer og mønstre, som ligger hinsides det, vi kender. Jordskred og dens 15 kapitler, skrevet fra vidt forskellige perspektiver og kritiske positioner, er et kollektivt led i tidens bevægelse mod at udfordre og gentænke menneskers forhold til naturen. Jordskred er redigeret af Paradoks – tidsskrift for filosofi og teori

Er vi ikke blandt de rigeste nationer på kloden, og har vi ikke verdens bedste naturfredningslov? Hvordan gik det så til, at det yndige land alligevel endte med en natur, der er blandt de ringeste i Europa? Bogen afslører, hvordan millioner af kroner er spildt på nyttesløse fredninger som for eksempel i Tøndermarsken, Varde Ådal, Rold Vesterskov og Værnengene i Vestjylland. I dag har naturen det værre, end før de kostbare fredninger blev gennemført. Bogen konkluderer, at staten har spillet fallit som naturens beskytter, mens private fonde og naturforeninger i stigende grad tager ansvaret på sig.

This textbook introduces and explains the issues around climate change and its mitigation. It includes topics across disciplines and can be used as a single-volume text by students studying a range of subjects. Among the topics included are: ·How to adopt significant mitigation measures now to avoid the most catastrophic long-term consequences of climate change.·Reducing the rates of highly potent, short-lived emissions of methane gas and black carbon particulates¿reductions that are necessary to meet the temperature targets of the Paris Agreements.·Implementing wide-ranging adaptation measures to reduce the deaths and economic costs of extreme heat waves, droughts, wildfires, hurricanes, and floods.·Recognizing the unusually rapid warming in the Arctic, which is disrupting weather patterns in the northern hemisphere and currents in the Atlantic Ocean, causing world-wide sea-level rise, and also causing methane leaks in the Arctic region¿leaksthat could eventually lead to irreversible global warming consequences. Meeting these challenges effectively requires action by both governments and businesses. The book examines the national and local governmental policies¿and business practices¿that are needed in sector-specific chapters. An objective of the book is to inform readers about specific problems resulting from climate change¿and the wide range of potential government policies and business practices, changes in technologies, and changes in public attitudes and actions that can reduce the emissions and otherwise lessen their impacts. Indeed, a central message is that understanding the issues posed by climate change requires no less than an understanding of climate science, micro- and macro-economics, technologies for mitigation and adaptation measures, as well as politics and law at many governmental levels from local to global. The author has included short case studies that illustrate and integrate multiple analytic perspectives. The book is therefore appropriate for students, professionals, and general audiences with wide-ranging interests and backgrounds.

From the 1972 Stockholm Declaration to the European Union's Green Deal, the principles of international environmental law have successfully permeated the multilateral discourse. They are also woven into a large patchwork of international treaties, binding the international community and requiring their implementation at the domestic level. This materials collection provides an edited compilation of international and European environmental law documents. Alongside the fundamentals as well as the procedural and liability frameworks, it includes a selection of the most relevant sectoral treaties relating to air, ozone, climate, freshwater, oceans, biodiversity, and hazardous substances.

This book provides a practical guide to habitats law in relation to planning and permitting in England. It contains a long-overdue introduction to, and overview of, the complicated and rapidly evolving system of wildlife and habitat protection both on land and in the marine environment. As well as providing an introduction to key legal principles, it explains the processes followed and factors taken into account in reaching decisions involving our natural world.The impact of habitat and wildlife laws is increasingly affecting all aspects of life. From a planning perspective, whether to do with house building or the construction of road and rail projects, to the day-to-day functioning of permitted activities such as sewage treatment works and dredging activities in ports, habitats laws plays a significant role.ABOUT THE AUTHORBrendon Moorhouse is an environmental and planning barrister practising at Six Pump Court, a Chambers recognised as one of the Countries' leading sets for environmental and planning law. He is regularly instructed in habitat and wildlife related matters and is frequently instructed in high profile permitting and planning related cases. He is a contributing author to Garner's Environmental Law.A visiting research fellow and external member of the University of West of England's environmental law faculty, he is also a trustee and member of the global advisory panel of the Conservation Collective charity.CONTENTSIntroductionChapter One - An Overview of Habitats ProtectionChapter Two - Planning - Environmental Impact AssessmentChapter Three - Marine Works - Environmental Impact AssessmentChapter Four - General Biodiversity DutyChapter Five - The Habitats Directive and Regulations- Part 1: Habitats Regulations - The designation and management of the National Site Network- Part 2: Plans or Projects affecting the National Site NetworkChapter Six - Habitat and Biodiversity Trends

Climate change litigation is a widely researched phenomenon and the number of climate cases, on a global scale, is continuously increasing. This book examines in detail climate change litigation taking place at the EU Courts, i.e. the General Court and Court of Justice of the European Union – a jurisdiction that has received relatively little research attention so far. The focus of the book is the standing requirements that private parties must satisfy in order to bring direct actions for annulment before the EU Courts pursuant to Article 263 TFEU, fourth paragraph (the EU standing test). The book contains a thorough examination of how the standing test has been applied and understood in EU climate change litigation, and what the foundational considerations of the test are. Moreover, it is considered whether climate change, and the private rights and interests affected by it, is recognised as a legitimate basis for standing under the test or whether a mismatch is at play. On this basis, the book engages in discussions of the potential implications for the role of the EU Courts and for EU climate law, as well as discussions of how climate change litigation affects the legal development of the EU standing test. The book is of particular relevance to academics and legal practitioners with an interest in understanding how and why the EU standing test is highly challenging for climate change litigants. The author, Sine Rosvig Sørensen, holds a masters degree and a PhD in law from Aarhus University. This book is a lightly revised version of her PhD thesis with the same title.

A sea-change is coming for commercial leasing. As the climate emergency gathers pace, the pressure is on for the property sector to get its house(s) in order. And for all the column inches on potential regulation or absent top-down policy, it is fast understanding that its contractual relationships, particularly its green leases, will be key to concreting environmental ambitions and ESG expectations into its real estate.To be properly impactful, the green lease must do many things. It must cater for existing legislation in many areas, while anticipating change. It must rethink bricks and mortar as a complex body, living its operations and breathing out clean air. In aligning the interests of landlords and tenants it must, arguably for the first time, challenge the fundamental notions of FRI leasing in a way that is both credible and commercially viable.This book explains the why and the how of green leasing in the commercial world. It offers drafting tips to help this nascent tool take root, and it makes a necessarily broad analysis of its legislative context. It considers how the development of solicitor's duties could demand more from the legal profession's understanding and advice. It was written to inspire and empower real estate lawyers and practitioners, as they support the efforts of future-looking commercial clients to rebuild the industry from the ground up.ABOUT THE AUTHORClare Harman Clark is a Senior Counsel - Knowledge in the real estate team at Taylor Wessing LLP. She chairs the Property Section at the Law Society and teaches on the Property Law and Practice and Commercial Property modules of the LPC at the University of Westminster.Back in the mists of time, she trained as a journalist and still writes regularly for national and trade press. She sits on the editorial board of the Landlord and Tenant Review and has contributed chapters to various books on the development of legal practice (including Career Development for Women Lawyers; Tomorrow's KM: innovation, best practice, and the future of knowledge management; and Lawyer's guide to the future of practice management).Since qualifying at Clifford Chance LLP, she has spent the best part of two decades advising on all aspects of commercial real estate, for a vast array of clients. In her current role, Clare focuses on knowledge management and enjoys the professional space to leverage her transactional experience while engaging with the macro trends affecting our sector. She recently completed a Masters in International Planning and Sustainable Development - for all the discussion on pandemics, or Brexit, or technology, by far the biggest issue facing us today is the climate change crisis.CONTENTSChapter One - Introduction - Changing the WorldChapter Two - Background law and regulationChapter Three - The new generation of green leasesChapter Four - Drafting the green leaseChapter Five - Seeking other opportunities to import green lease provisionsChapter Six - The role of the real estate lawyerChapter Seven - Conclusion: The Future is GreenBibliography

This book presents the updated results of an investigation carried out in 2019. The National Autonomous University of Mexico's (UNAM) Climate Change Research Program (PINCC), funded the research coordinated by Armelle Gouritin. The research aims to answer the following questions: Does the Mexican legal framework and public policies address forced internal climate mobility? If not, what could be the elements of a legal framework and public policies to address the phenomenon? As the phenomenon was approached it was clear that it was extremely complex and consisted of numerous tensions that would lead to other questions throughout the research process.Climate forced internal displacement is projected as a huge-scale phenomenon in Mexico. Against this background, the book provides the first critical diagnosis of the current politico-legal Mexican framework and finds it to be lagging behind in terms of prevention and attention. The book analyses the three-level Mexican governance (federal, state and local levels), and identifies serious loopholes according to a rights-based approach that particularly focuses on women, indigenous peoples, and persons and communities with scarce economic resources. The results provide information on up-coming legislative and political processes and provide benchmarks that can be applied in other case-studies, including other national frameworks' critical analysis.

This book addresses the Arctic and the northern regions by exploring cold waters and northern seascapes. It focuses on cultural discourses and artistic representations concerning the human experience and imagination of how the Arctic Ocean has been explored and used. It aims to assess what is specific to the northern waters vis-a-vis other sea and water areas in the world. The contextual background is provided by the fundamental shift from terra-based thinking towards aqua-based thinking, including the histories of the northern waters and the innovative ocean studies of the last decades.This book will be of interest to readers in Arctic studies and Sea and Ocean studies (including those with interests in literature, history, cultural and film studies, anthropology and politics), Environmental History and Cultural studies as well as in Russian studies. The book has been assembled with a view towards upper-level undergraduate and post-graduate students and scholars and will also be appropriate for courses in the fields mentioned above. The book will be of interest to specialists working in and with Arctic environmental issues. There is a broad array of international academic networks, environmental, governance and cultural associations outside academia whose members may also find the book of interest.
