Environmental Law Policies & Regulations

After exploring this website specifically naming laws and policies regarding environmental law, I realize that there is a lot that must be protected in our environment.  For example, The Duck Stamp Act of 1934, an act created to support the Migratory Bird Conservation Act by providing funds for migratory-bird sanctuaries, refuges, and breeding grounds.

Another act would be the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, which provides for jurisdiciton of the U.S. over the lands of the outer Continental Shelf, and to authorizs the Secretary of the Interior to lease such lands at certain times of need.

This source showed me the importance environmental law plays in our lives and without it our environment would not be as clean as it is today.


What do you do to help save, preserve, and protect our environment?
