What is environmental law?
Environmental law attempts to minimise the impact of climate change and protect the environment. It can cover a number of areas, including climate control, water pollution, renewable energy, waste and ESG.
Environmental law applies to every business and public body. If it is not carefully managed, non-compliance can cause significant financial and reputational damage to businesses.
