دراسة التأثير على البيئة كآلية لتطبيق مبدأ الحيطة

Abstract EN

Summary: Proving the non-seriousness of any activity on the environment and human health can only be achieved by conducting a study to assess its effects on the environment, according to specific rules and conditions, and the issue of determining and assessing the degree of severity of the damage through which the necessary precautionary measures are taken raises some difficulties, but this assessment is relative and subject to development.

According to the development of science and knowledge, then the impact study is considered a valuable tool that allows measuring the degree of risk and estimating the irreversible nature of the damages resulting from the proposed activity, which may harm the environment, and thus it is a mechanism that plays a positive role in facilitating the application of the precautionary principle, which has been adopted by several international agreements.

And even within some national legislations.
