| Popis | The use of renewable energy is growing worldwide as it has an important part to play in promoting a development. Although the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources is one of measures needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions it could have negative impacts on the environment. Biomass cultivation could entail land use changes, the introduction of invasive alien species and other effects on biodiversity. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the precautionary principle in relation to the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources in addition to a comparison of relevant legal regulations in European states. An emphasis is put on a balancing of interests in legislation. |
