Water Pollution, the Right to a Healthy Environment, and the Triple Planetary Crisis The Dutch Case
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This poster presents an educational project that investigates the complex connections between water pollution, environmental law, and global sustainability challenges, using the Netherlands as a detailed case study. The project demonstrates that despite its long-standing reputation for advanced water management, the country faces significant ecological and chemical challenges in meeting crucial EU standards for surface waters. This failure to protect water quality serves as a clear local manifestation of the global Triple Planetary Crisis (climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss), which directly compromises the universal Right to a Healthy Environment.
