International Legislative Framework
International environmental law is one of the most rapidly evolving branches of international law. It encompasses intergovernmental organizations (IGOs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), international financial organizations (IFOs), associations of private- sector corporations and trade groups. There are several sources of international law: bilateral and multilateral treaties (conventional law), practice of legal customs (customary law), general principles of law adopted in national laws and judicial decisions and experts writings. The new source of law comes from IGOs and other entities that produce resolutions, declarations, guidelines, etc., that have recommendatory power. It is so-called soft law because it is non-binding, but it can become binding over time. Some soft law sources are ISO14000 – Environmental Management System and ISO 26000 – Guidance for Social Responsibility, the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment’s (IEMA) best practice standards, etc. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a concept that signifies the integration of environmental, social and human rights awareness into the corporate business model. Today, corporations voluntarily adopt CSR policy because it brings competitive advantage. In spite of the fact that critics see it as a greenwashing instrument, corporations can promote environmental responsibility more efficiently than governments because they have financial and human resources at their disposal.
