Relevance between Ecological Justice and Human Rights
Abstract
This research aims to analyze how the relevance between ecological justice and human rights. This research is a normative legal research using statute approach and conceptual approach. Research results show that the environment is one of the aspects that affect the survival and welfare of humans. However, at the practical level, protection of the right to the environment is often misunderstood by parties who only exercise their rights to exploit the environment, without considering the protection of the environment itself, so that there is a dichotomy between human rights and environmental rights. In fact, in essence both rights are united. The relevance between human rights and ecological justice can be seen from the right to the environment which is an instrument in human rights, namely that one form of human rights is the right to a good and healthy environment, and this right to the environment will be fulfilled if ecological justice is realized.
