About this ebook
Marine Pollution Controls explores the intricate legal structures created to defend our oceans from the harm of pollution, addressing the critical question of whether current measures are sufficient to prevent irreversible damage to marine ecosystems. The book highlights the fact that oceans play a vital role in regulating climate and supporting global biodiversity, further emphasizing the urgency of effective pollution controls.
It dives into international maritime law, examining conventions like MARPOL and UNCLOS, while also scrutinizing national enforcement frameworks. The book progresses by first tracing the history of international maritime law, then centers on vessel-source pollution, responses to accidental pollution such as oil spills, and the regulation of dumping at sea.
A key insight is the disparity between the legal ideals of international conventions and the practical challenges of enforcement, particularly on the high seas.
Ultimately, this comprehensive analysis offers valuable insights for policymakers, legal scholars, and environmental advocates interested in strengthening marine environmental policy and law.
