Environmental litigation refers to legal actions taken to address issues related to the environment, such as pollution, land use, and natural resource management. This type of litigation can involve individuals, organizations, or government entities seeking to enforce environmental laws or regulations. Common cases may include challenges against companies for violating Clean Air Act or Clean Water Act standards. These legal disputes often aim to protect ecosystems, public health, and community rights. Environmental litigation can also involve lawsuits for damages caused by environmental harm, such as oil spills or hazardous waste disposal. Successful cases can lead to stricter regulations and increased accountability for polluters.
