Çevrenin korunması ihtiyacı ve uluslararası toplumun tamamını etkileyen çevresel bozulmanın insanlığın geleceğini tehdit ettiği yıllardır kabul edilen bir gerçekliktir. Küresel iklim değişikliği, biyolojik çeşitliliğin kaybı, doğal kaynakların sömürülmesi, küresel ortak alanlara verilen çevresel zararlar uluslararası toplumun tamamını tehdit etmektedir. Ancak uluslararası hukuk kişilerini bu tahribattan alıkoyup çevresel değerleri tam manasıyla koruyan bağlayıcı uluslararası hukuk kurallar ise yok denecek kadar azdır. Çevrenin etkili ve sürüdürülebilir bir şekilde korunmasının en etkili yollarından bir tanesi de uluslararası bağlayıcı ve uygulanabilir çevresel normlar oluşturmaktır. Bu bağlamda, uluslararası toplumun hayati çıkarlarını tehdit eden çevresel tahribatın geri dönüşü olmayan zararları barındırdığı düşünüldüğünde jus cogens normlar kapsamına çevrenin korunmasına yönelik değerlerin de dahil edilmesi gerekliliği tartışması hiç olmadığı kadar acil bir konuyu oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı, çevrenin korunmasının jus cogens norm olarak değerlendirilmesinin zamanının gelip gelmediği sorunsalını gündeme getirmektir. Mevcut çalışmada uluslararası hukuk kuralları ışığında çevresel değerlerin jus cogens norm olarak tanınmasının mümkün olup olmadığı ele alınmaktadır. Bu değerlendirme yapılırken jus cogens normun sahip olması gereken özellikleri çevresel değerlerin korunması ilkelerinin taşıyıp taşımadığı uluslararası hukuk ilkeleri incelenerek tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır.

EVALUTION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL VALUES AND JUS COGENS

Öz

It has been an accepted reality for years that the need to protect the environment and the consequences of environmental degradation affecting the entire international community, threatens the future of humanity. Global climate change, loss of biodiversity, exploitation of natural resources, and environmental damage to global commons threaten the entire international community. However, binding international legal rules that would prevent international law entities from this destruction and fully protect environmental values are almost non-existent. One of the most effective ways to protect the environment effectively and sustainably is to establish internationally binding and applicable environmental norms. In this context, considering that environmental destruction, which threatens the vital interests of the international community, involves irreversible damage, the discussion on the necessity of including values for environmental protection within the scope of jus cogens norms is more urgent than ever. The aim of the study is to raise the question of whether it is time to consider environmental protection as a jus cogens norm. The current study examines whether it is possible to recognize environmental values as jus cogens norms in the light of international law rules. While making this assessment, an attempt was made determine whether the principles of protection of environmental values bear the features that the jus cogens norm should have by examining the principles of international law.
