Since 2003 climate change and overuse of water resources have emerged as major challenges for the environmental legal system. The second edition of Australian Environmental Law addresses these issues. It remains a principles-based text on environmental law and policy which examines Australia's environmental system from a doctrinal and instrumental perspective. Relevant legislation and case law have been updated throughout and the book has been restructured to reflect ever-increasing levels of social, political and academic interest in sustainable development and environmental planning. The chapters on ecologically sustainable development and the instruments of environmental law have been rewritten, restructured and relocated, and a new chapter on the emerging challenges for environmental law has been added, including discussion of climate change and water resources management.

This landmark book unveils the history of defending Australia's natural environment and examines the subject's legal and political contexts from the birth of the nation in 1901 until the advent of the so-called modern era of environmental regulation in the late 1960s. It rejects the mythology that Australia lacked environmental law before the late 1960s in revealing how many of today's environmental laws, from pollution control to nature conservation, emerged from precedents or events much earlier in the 20th century. This history however reveals a discrepancy between lawmakers' greater efficacy to exploit rather than protect the environment, a discrepancy that grew as nature's backlash intensified in a rapidly degrading continent colonised to build the Australian nation. In exploring these dynamics, the book offers a rich tapestry of case studies illustrated with historic photographs that show the origins of Australia's environmental laws and how they borrowed from international precedents or furnished lessons for other nations. Through its multi-disciplinary enquiry, the book offers scholars and students of environmental law, legal history and the environmental humanities a unique story about the failures and successes in the making of environmental law.

The purpose of this book is to assess the development of international environmental law in the Asia Pacific. Consideration is given to the impact upon the region of global, regional and subregional environmental law. An assessment is also undertaken of how certain states, and groups of states, have responded domestically and within their own subregions to these developments. For the purposes of this book the Asia Pacific is defined as essentially the states which comprise East and Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the island states of the Southwest Pacific. Occasional consideration is also given to the states of South Asia.
