, QUESTION 1 (2 ANSWERS PROVIDED)

Introduction

Section 24 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 provides that
everyone has the right to an environment that is not harmful to their health or
wellbeing and to have the environment protected, for the benefit of present and
future generations, through reasonable legislative and other measures that prevent
pollution, promote conservation and secure ecologically sustainable development
while allowing justifiable social and economic development.1 This environmental right
reflects deeply held moral concerns about human dignity, fairness and responsibility
towards nature and future generations. The environmental legal framework gives
concrete meaning to these values by transforming them into binding duties and
enforceable standards.
