The book offers a profound exploration of the evolving field of environmental law in the context of our rapidly expanding human footprint on the planet. Initially focused on local environmental concerns, environmental law has evolved to grapple with the intricate and expansive implications of human activity on the earth system, particularly in light of the urgent climate emergency in the Anthropocene era.The text underscores the interconnectedness of various physical processes on a planetary scale, producing a complex web of interactions that challenge traditional perceptions of environmental dynamics. This complexity presents formidable challenges to the field of environmental studies, demanding interdisciplinary collaboration and a departure from traditional legal paradigms rooted in sectoral and jurisdictional boundaries.Furthermore, the book emphasises the role of complexity in fostering connectivity between legal orders and sectors and other disciplines, as well as giving rise to conflicts within environmental law. It highlights the need for legal scholars and practitioners to transcend specialised knowledge silos, embrace interdisciplinary exchanges, and acknowledge the significance of conflict as a source of legal innovation.
