Abstract
This analytical study addresses the fundamental gap between global discourse on environmental protection and the concrete reality of local legislative regulation, using Morocco as a case study. The author first surveys the risks of the global dimension of pollution — from oil tanker disasters and transboundary industrial emissions to radioactive waste leakage — citing catastrophes such as Chernobyl, ozone depletion, and climate warming to demonstrate the inadequacy of the international legal order. He then examines the nascent elements of national regulation in Morocco, evaluating the sufficiency and practical effectiveness of existing environmental texts in light of limited political will and institutional capacity. The author concludes that confronting pollution requires firm political will at both global and national levels, a comprehensive legislative approach combining international commitments with national regulatory action, and a solidarity-based approach transcending narrow interests as the only guarantee for safeguarding humanity's future.
