تغير المناخ و الأراضي الرطبة ذات الأهمية الدولية : آفاق القانون الدولي

الملخص EN

This Article aims to highlight the mutual impact of wetlands and climate change and its impact on human rights and how international environmental law addresses this problem.

Poor wetlands management causes the spread of some greenhouse gases that cause climate change, and climate change leads to degradation of wetlands due to the fragility of these ecosystems and their inability to adapt.

Both climate change and wetlands degradation have impacts on people living with it.

Both climate change and wetlands are the focus of international environmental law through the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol, the Paris Agreement 2015 and the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance Ramsar 1971.

International efforts have intensified in the past few years to address the negative impacts of climate change and its negative impacts on ecosystems and human rights in particular.
