Protecting the Coast and Ocean: A Guide to Marine Conservation Law in British Columbia
ISBN: 9780774865494 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Fish were once so abundant in BC waters that Indigenous elders recall dried salmon being stacked like firewood.

This meticulous work analyzes and compares the range of Canadian and international legal tools available, providing in-depth case studies to illustrate how each instrument can work in practice. Despite climate change, overfishing, and pollution, this is a convincing demonstration to address...
