Abstract

Environmental destruction as a war tactic poses significant challenges under international law. This study explores the intersection of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and International Human Rights Law (IHRL) in addressing war-induced ecological harm, emphasizing “environcide” as a human rights violation. Using a normative juridical method, this research examines legal frameworks, including the ENMOD Convention, Geneva Conventions, and Rome Statute, alongside case studies from Vietnam, Ukraine-Russia, and Gaza. Employing a statute approach and Critical Legal Studies (CLS) analysis, the study reveals structural inequalities and power dynamics that hinder legal enforcement. It also identifies opportunities to strengthen accountability, recognize environcide, and promote participatory legal reforms. Aligning IHL and IHRL through these mechanisms can enhance environmental protection during and after conflict, ensuring a more just and sustainable approach to war’s ecological consequences.

Abstract

The development of digital twin technology enables the creation of virtual representations of ecosystems such as forests, oceans, and the atmosphere for environmental monitoring and disaster mitigation. However, the storage of ecological data on foreign servers raises critical issues of jurisdiction, ownership, and data sovereignty. This study aims to analyze the challenges of national jurisdiction in regulating ecological data ownership and protection, while assessing the role of cyber law as a legal instrument to reinforce state sovereignty over digital ecological assets. Employing a normative juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches, the research draws on primary legal sources, secondary literature, and international reports. The findings reveal a legal vacuum concerning ecological data protection, potential domination by foreign entities, and weak national regulatory capacity. Consequently, strengthening cyber law is essential to expand legal jurisdiction into cyberspace, safeguard eco-digital sovereignty, and promote international cooperation in protecting strategic environmental data.
