Environmental permits: when and how you are charged Environmental permits are legal documents issued by environmental regulators that allow businesses to undertake activities that could potentially harm the environment. These permits set out conditions that businesses must follow to minimise their environmental impact. One important aspect of environmental permits is how and when businesses are charged for them. To find out what key aspects the environmental permits include as well as the impact they might have on your business, please follow the link or give our friendly team a call. https://lnkd.in/eurkdHzJ #environmental #environmentalpermits #manufacturing #wastemanagement #construction #environmentalguidance

Our Environmental Law team, including Partner Theologos Mintzas and Associates Ilia-Aikaterini Boura and Marianna Papandreou, has compiled a summary of the key points of Directive 2024/1275, recently issued by the European Parliament and the Council on April 24, 2024. This directive updates the framework for reducing emissions and energy use in buildings across the EU and represents a crucial step towards achieving a 60% reduction in emissions in the building sector by 2030 compared to 2015, and creating a decarbonized, zero-emission building stock by 2050.

I just finished my first article for my new Substack blog, American Abundance. The blog is about showcasing crucial policy changes we need in America to improve the country and our people's quality of life. This first article is about a Nixon-era environmental law called NEPA, which allows interest groups to block or dramatically increase the cost of necessary infrastructure, including renewable projects. Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/e6G2X8ET

R(Finch) v Surrey [2024] UKSC 20: It is very interesting to see the huge impact of An Taisce's Glanbia and Edenderry cases in this UK SCt Judgment on Climate Change. This shows that litigation of complex issues serves an important public good, even when (in the Glanbia case for example) the outcome is on paper a "loss". The Glanbia case in particular was relied heavily on by the Court and is referenced in their conclusion, as an important articulation of the nature of indirect impacts that should be taken into account in Environmental Impact Assessment of a project. In this case the UKSCt found that the impacts of the oil burned on climate change should have been taken into account when assessing a proposed oil drilling project. Consideration is also given to the meaning of transboundary impacts in an EIA context. The power of EIA as a tool in the mitigation of climate change is also clear here. #Finch
Major environmental law case: Supreme Court decision in Finch. Planning practitioners need to be aware of this case (and will hear plenty about it I expect!) and it marks a significant development in climate change litigation. The Supreme Court has handed down its judgment in Finch. By a majority it has said that the greenhouse gas emissions which result from burning fossil fuel, in this case oil, post a refinement process, should have been taken into account in Environmental Assessment work which related to an application for consent for the extraction of that oil. This sort of effect is indirect, but of obvious importance to the environment. The judgment sets a benchmark for what environmental assessment work should include. I certainly welcome an outcome which helps us better understand the effect of decision making on greenhouse gas emissions and the climate… There are other subtler points about the scope of the court’s review in this context, which will be of interest to the real enthusiasts!

1moWhat are you going to do about the shards of fibreglass that continually come off the blades and enter the water? There has been a fair bit if research done to support these as not being environmentally friendly options. With beaches in America being closed due to public safety by these shards washing up. I do not think that there is enough actual research gone into the fully effects that these windmills have on the environment. Both on land and water. It is only now all coming into the spotlight what environmental damage they are causing. It is all just a money grab by the plant owners and manufacturers. These are not recyclable. So how can that be environmentally friendly?
