Abstract
The relationship between law and ecosystems has become something of a global phenomenon to protect biodiversity. However, “going green” in current legal system is not yet enough to solve issues pertaining to biodiversity declines. Some of those laws are far from addressing existing environmental problems. In this article, limit of “going green” in legal system is discussed, using the case-study method. In addition, legislation, case law, and emerging trends in the green field are evaluated. This article leads the conclusion that legal reform about conservation and application of natural resources is operated and included in Basic Act on Biodiversity, which is desirable. This is crucial for the construction of a sustainable society.
