What right do the people have regarding the environment?
The people have a right to a balanced and healthful ecology. The State is tasked with protecting and advancing this right for the benefit of everyone. This must be done in accordance with the rhythm and harmony of nature. Article II, Section 16 1987 Philippine Constitution guarantees this environmental protection for all. “SECTION 16. The State shall protect and advance the right of the people to a balanced and healthful ecology in accord with the rhythm and harmony of nature.” 30-Jan-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
