Clean environment right is human right
The European Union calls to recognize 46 member states as the right of clean, healthy and sustainable environment as human right. The human rights organization stated that in the decision for the protection of human rights and environment, climate change, biodiversity loss, and precautions for the address of the triple crisis, which consists of pollution, are mandatory for better benefit from human rights. The description was said: "According to the partnership, the member states must respect a number of principles in the implementation of this advice: the principle of harming, the principle of preventing, the principle of specialization and the principle of polluting, as the general principles of international environmental law; the need for equality among generations; the principle of discrimination; access to the environment without discrimination in the environment and the environment training.

Works should act in accordance with their responsibilities]
The Committee also expressed concerns about the disproportionate effect that environmental degradation can be created, and the member states were called to take adequate measures to protect the rights of those who are most vulnerable to environmental damage, or under special risk due to these damages. Member states are also encouraged to act in accordance with the environmental responsibilities of commercial businesses. In August, the United Nations Human Rights Council adopted clean, healthy and sustainable environmental right as human right. This development was welcomed by the Secretary General of the United Nations António Guterres. [
States can come together in common struggle]
António Guterres stated that by making a statement, "the point of view shows that this development can come together in common struggles of member states." Guterres said: “International society has made this right universal recognition and approached us to transform this right into reality for everyone. This decision will help reduce environmental injustices, shut down protection open and strengthen people in sensitive condition, especially environmental human rights defenders, children, teenagers, women and native people. The decision will also allow governments to accelerate environmental and human rights obligations and their commitments. "
