description Only recently the environmental protection has become a real concern of the international community. Despite the fact that no human rights treaties, such as the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, contain a right to the environment explicitly, they have been interpreted as including environmental protection obligations for the Contracting States.
