Abstract

El derecho del medio ambiente o derecho ambiental, enfrenta cada día desafíos de mayor escala y dificultad; el informe Geo6, "Planeta sano, Gente sana", dado a conocer en el marco de la Cuarta Asamblea de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente, hace un llamado de apremio a la Comunidad Internacional y a la sociedad en general para afrontar de manera efectiva los retos ambientales del presente a fin de alcanzar los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible y otras metas acordadas a escala internacional como, por ejemplo, las definidas mediante del Acuerdo de París (PNUMA, 2019). El citado informe, pone de presente que un planeta insalubre trae como consecuencia personas enfermas, y que la evidencia recaudada prueba que efectivamente estamos ante una crisis ambiental de extraordinarias proporciones. Algunos hechos que validan esta afirmación son: la grave pérdida de biodiversidad, el cambio climático, la contaminación de la atmósfera y del agua, el agotamiento de los océanos, y el cambio en el uso de la tierra, factores que deben ser resueltos urgentemente. El GEO6 ilustra en detalle los costos sociales y económicos asociados a este fenómeno al señalar que la exposición al aire y al agua contaminados cobra nueve millones de vidas al año, el precio anual de la contaminación se calcula en US$4,6 billones, y existe un significativo proceso de extinción de especies (42% de los invertebrados terrestres, 34% de los invertebrados de agua dulce y 25% de los invertebrados marinos) que pone en peligro la integridad planetaria (PNUMA, 2019). Así las cosas, según PNUMA, si continuamos incumpliendo los compromisos internacionales que se han definido para lograr la protección de la naturaleza, si no se alcanzan las metas ambientales definidas en la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible, ni las metas ambientales convenidas internacionalmente para 2050, si continuamos demostrando nuestra incapacidad de adoptar medidas urgentes, se generarán consecuencias negativas y potencialmente irreversibles para los recursos ambientales esenciales y para la salud humana.
