Abstract

It is essential to find solutions for societal issues because of the planet's environmental crisis and its ability to sustain the well-being of humans. In this context, "transformations towards sustainability" gain prominence and institutionalize themselves more deeply in global policy and intellectual discourse. Reorienting and modifying government activities and processes is necessary for transformations towards sustainability. In spite of the many different stakeholders involved in managing the transition, this article examines the role of the legal system in directing the process of change toward a more equitable and sustainable future. The relationship between both strategies has been recognized in several global and geographic regions musical instruments UN subsidiary organization legislation, conversation results records, and court rulings that view in the realm of human rights as a practical mechanism for promoting environmental protection goals. The majority of groups, governing bodies, and even academics have considered environmental deterioration and abuses of human rights as unconnected issues, despite the apparent link between both. Environmentalists have a history of ignoring the effects caused by environmental abuse on human populations in favor of protecting natural resources. As a tactical instrument, judicial intervention can influence behavior, opening the door to transformational shifts. The study provides an original multidisciplinary analysis of representative Indian climate change legal choices situated within the sustainability transitions rhetoric supported by the environmental rule of law, drawing on the social science literature. By examining policies, actions made by human rights and environmental organizations, and rulings from different tribunals, this study aims to outline the association between preserving the environment and fundamental rights viewpoints.
