| description | The plethora of reporting on environmental issues in newspapers, news broadcasts on radio
and television and in many other areas of daily life has created a new awareness of the
environment in the general public. The cultivation of this awareness heightens the public's
interest in becoming involved in environmental matters. Although individuals often realise that
some action is required to address an environmental problem, they are in general ignorant of
how environmental law can be applied to the issue. Even amongst informed environmentalists
there is no common procedure for approaching environmental issues. Public interest
participation in managing and conserving the environment is one avenue open to the public |
