Why do we need Environmental Rule of Law?
The global report on environmental rule of law (2019) reflects a sorrow state of enforcement of laws in Bangladesh despite the two hundred pieces of legislation that the country has on environment. The environmental law framework in Bangladesh fails to underscore the key elements of environmental rule of law in making, enacting, and enforcing laws concerning environment. Bangladesh ranked 162
nd out of 180 countries in the 2020 Environmental Performance Index (EPI). As per the EPI report, Bangladesh scored only 29 out of 100 based on a range of sustainability indicators. The Environmental Democracy Index (2015), that tracks national progress in promoting environmental democracy in law and practice, designated the position of Bangladesh to fair or limited in terms of enactment and practices of environmental laws.
