Descripción: | Environmental law is the group of norms that regulate man´s behavior in society as well as the environment and the natural resources. The regulations concerning the coastal-marine norms are under International Legislation Agreements such as the United Nations treaty to the Sea Right, the Ramsar, Cites, and the Biological Diversity among others. Nationwide, the Political Constitution contains some laws and sets of rules that directly regulate aspects like the marine-terrestrial zone, the fishing, the wildlife, the turtles, and the cetaceans among others. However, these rules have some limitations and there also exists a lack of inter-institutional coordination. All this results in a poor ocean governability. |
