natural resource damages
Natural resource damages refer to the compensation required when natural resources, like water, land, or wildlife, are harmed due to pollution or environmental disasters. The goal is to restore these resources to their original condition or provide compensation for the loss. This process often involves assessing the extent of the damage, estimating costs for restoration or replacement, and holding responsible parties accountable. The concept helps ensure that the environment is protected, and that those affected by environmental harm receive support in recovering the value of their lost or damaged resources.
