Abstract

Climate change is driven by a combination of natural fluctuations and human activities, particularly the widespread use of fossil fuels (such as coal, oil, and natural gas) and alterations in land use practices such as logging, farming, and clearing land for agriculture. This global phenomenon encompasses various end-of-use activities, including agriculture, forestry, and consumerism. An inherent challenge in the global carbon dioxide (CO2) trading landscape lies in the competition between developed and developing countries, stemming from inconsistent CO2 prices. This competition manifests in three primary areas. Firstly, in the context of internationally transmitted mitigation outcomes, involving international trade aimed at surpassing Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) targets. Secondly, it pertains to sustainable development mechanisms, specifically the use of carbon offsets derived from projects implemented by both public and private entities worldwide. The third aspect revolves around non-market approaches, encompassing emission reduction through mitigation and adaptation efforts, financial support, technology transfer, and capacity building, which may involve tools like carbon taxes and Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). This research adopts a legal norm perspective, delving into methods that investigate, describe, synthesize, interpret, evaluate, and analyze positive approaches. The findings signify a paradigm shift aligning with the "polluter pays principle," recognizing that entities and individuals responsible for environmental pollution should bear the associated costs. In the quest for a new paradigm of sustainable development, a carbon market ecosystem assumes a pivotal role. This ecosystem contributes to enhancing sustainability by curbing greenhouse gas emissions and offering economic incentives to address climate change. It acts as a cornerstone in constructing a fresh paradigm for potential development.

Abstract

This article critically explores the potential of environmental use rights as a legal mechanism to advance a more inclusive and sustainable Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework. Traditionally limited to physical access or utility purposes, use rights have yet to realize their ecological and social functions within environmental governance. Using a normative legal and conceptual approach, this study argues that environmental use rights can enhance landowner accountability for ecological integrity while institutionalizing ESG principles of stewardship, transparency, and responsibility. Positioned as a hybrid construct between private property rights and public environmental interests, these rights offer a transformative legal pathway toward ecological justice and participatory land governance. Recognizing their normative and ecological value can empower communities to monitor land use, mitigate spatial conflicts, and embed environmental considerations into ESG assessment structures.

Abstract

Abstrak Hukum lingkungan dibuat dengan tujuan untuk melindungi lingkungan dan memberi manfaat kepada masyarakat. Artinya peraturan tersebut dibuat adalah untuk kepentingan masyarakat, sehingga jangan sampai terjadi bahwa, karena dilaksanakannya peraturan tersebut, masyarakat justru menjadi resah. Unsur ketiga adalah keadilan. Dalam penegakan hukum lingkungan harus diperhatikan, namun demikian hukum tidak identik dengan keadilan, Karena hukum itu sifatnya umum, mengikat semua orang, dan menyamaratakan. Dalam penataan dan penegakan hukum lingkungan, unsur kepastian, unsur kemanfaatan ,dan unsur keadilan harus dikompromikan, ketiganya harus mendapat perhatian secara proporsional. Sehingga lingkungan yang tercemar dapat dipulihkan kembali. Kata Kunci: Sanksi Hukum, Industri Pelaku Pencemaran Abstract Environmental laws are made with the aim of protecting environment and benefit society. This means that the regulation is made for the benefit of the community, so it should not happen that, because of the implementation of the regulation, the community will become restless. The third element is justice. In the enforcement of environmental law, attention must be paid to the law, however, the law is not synonymous with justice, because the law is general in nature, binding on everyone, and generalizing. In structuring and enforcing environmental law, the element of certainty, the element of benefit, and the element of justice must be compromised, all three of which must receive proportional attention. So that the polluted environment can be restored. Keywords: Legal Sanctions, Polluting Industry
