Research Abstract |
Since it is necessary for the future framework agreement to clarifymeanings of legal principles on climate change, I submitted two reports on “the LegalPrinciples relating to Climate Change” to the International Law Association (ILA).It alsorevealed that contaminants other than “greenhouse gases”, which are not regulated bytreaties on climate change, have greenhouse effects too. Since they are intimately related totransboundary air pollution and ozone depletion, I proposed and submitted preliminaryreport to the UN International Law Commission that the problem on climate change mustbe subsumed more comprehensivelyinto the framework of the protection of “atmosphere”.
