Environmental Management and Coordination Act

The Environmental Management and Coordination Act (EMCA) is a key law that guides how a country protects and manages its environment. It sets rules for conserving natural resources, controlling pollution, and ensuring sustainable development. The act also establishes institutions to oversee environmental policies, enforce regulations, and raise awareness. Its goal is to balance human activity with environmental health, ensuring that development does not harm ecosystems or public health, now or in the future.
