Abstract

Cloud Seeding is a recent scientific discovery on weather modification and alteration that aims to enhance rainfall in addressing drought and climate change issues. However, despite this potent discovery there are several legal issues yet to be addressed in the usage of cloud seeding. Hence, the study examines the legal issue arising from cloud seeding. The study adopts a doctrinal method of study, relying on primary and secondary research material, such as laws, journal articles, internet articles, and other relevant research material. The data obtained were analyzed using a descriptive and analytical method. The study found that cloud seeding is a potential means of curtailing the incidence of drought and desertification caused by climate change arising from harmful industrial and human activities. However, the study also found that several legal issues may arise in utilising cloud seeding, which includes a lack of comprehensive international law regulating cloud Seeding, the inability of the existing laws to address transboundary issues, liability, impose due compliance and sanction of wrong utilising cloud seeding that adversely alter the natural state of the environment. Concerning this the study concludes and recommends that there is a need for a unified global legal framework to ensure the responsible use of cloud seeding and effective regulation.

Abstract

The practice of surrogacy in Uganda has several legal issues and implications. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the legal issues and implications related to surrogacy in Uganda and make comparisons with the United Kingdom. In this case, the study was conducted using a doctrinal research method, relying on primary and secondary research materials. This study found the following: legislation on surrogacy is still being developed by the Ugandan government, and existing laws do not directly regulate surrogacy, which essentially creates legal loopholes and legal vacuums. In addition, this study found that UK law appears to adequately address issues related to surrogacy. This study concludes and recommends that the Ugandan government needs to accelerate the enactment of legislation on surrogacy to address relevant issues in the future, such as the commodification of women's bodies, parental rights, the best interests of the child, and so on.
