Nowadays, environmental problems have become important due to their global impacts. The reason of this importance is that the consequences of the environmental pollution, caused by establishments or by other polluting operations, are not limited within the boundaries of the state where the pollution has emerged. When pollution act appears within the boundaries of more than one state, the same damage can bring about negative effects for other countries at large. Like in these transboundary pollution cases, country’s law that is applied here becomes a problematic area and in that case the rules of conflict of laws shall necessarily be applied.
