The increasing threat of pollution of the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico necessitates the adoption of coping measures in the wider Caribbean. In the context of examining the internal workings of UNEP's environmental programme in the region, the Law of Caribbean Marine Pollution provides a lucid account of measures adopted to date and those that remain urgently needed, with a view toward referencing the laws of all of the countries of the wider Caribbean. Written by a law lecturer at the University of the West Indies, this book clearly sets out the legal framework governing the measures needed to address the kinds of pollution problems that may threaten sustainable development in the Caribbean. It looks at prevention per se, responsibilities and rights during pollution emergencies, and law governing liability and compensation, all from a global, regional, and national perspective. It is therefore an unmatched resource for Caribbean policy makers, providers of institutional support, Caribbean environmental law students and practitioners, and all those interested in evaluating regional solutions to developmental problems.
