بررسی امکان تحدید صید ترال در قوانین مرتبط با محیطزیست با تأکید بر اصل پنجاهم قانون اساسی ایران (Persian)

Investigating the Limitation of Trawl Net Fishing in Environment-Related Laws with Emphasis on the 50th Principle of Iran's Constitution. (English)

The right to a healthy environment reflects fundamental values such as the right to life, the right to health, and the right to a healthy and standard quality life that belongs to different generations of humans in the present and future. Trawl net fishing has been carried out in the Persian Gulf for some time, which, according to experts, violates the right to a healthy environment and its fundamental values. In trawl net fishing, a large fish trapping net in the shape of a funnel is used, which is attached to the back of a floating vessel and catches marine organisms at different depths with a coverage coefficient of 90%, causing serious damage to the marine ecosystem. Preservation of the environment is done by supporting the protection, improvement of the environment and preventing and prohibiting any kind of pollution and destructive action that disturbe the balance and suitability of the environment. Preservation of various animal species, including aquatic animals, is an example of environmental protection. In this research, through a descriptive and library method of investigation, by analysing laws and regulations,we aim to answer the question whether it is possible to impose restrictions or prohibitions on this type of fishing in the Iranian legal system? Which laws and regulations can be relied upon to address the damage caused by trammel net fishing to the environment and natural resources? To this end, the constitution, ordinary laws and regulations are first examined, followed by the general policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the 1404 Vision Document and the Environmental Protection and Restoration Act. Finally, regional and international conventions and international documents are studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
