Overview
Popular resistance to environmental depredation has grown at an unprecedented rate in the last few years. Direct action by the citizen now comes in many forms. This book examines the legal process available to individuals and environmental pressure groups in the UK. From claiming damages for injury resulting from pollution, to bringing nuisance claims, to judicial reviews, injunctions, and even to relevant criminal law, the expert contributors to this book explain what the law is, how it can work, what action might be appropriate, and where individuals can seek help. It gives information on legal aid, the UK criminal justice act, and on the British system of injunctions, judicial reviews and enquiries. It demystifies legal processes, and is an invaluable guide to the intricacies of the UK's legal system.Book Details
