Man is both creator and moulders of his environment, which gives him physical sustenance and affords him the opportunity of intellectual, moral, social and spiritual growth. In the long and tortuous evaluation of human race on this planet, a stage has been reached when, through the rapid acceleration of science and technology, man has acquired the power to transform his environment in countless ways and on unprecedented scale. Environmental problems are not new. Human societies have long and major impact on their environment. Their tendency to exploit it as if it were an inexhaustible resource has repeatedly led to disaster, sometimes leading to the loss of entire human communities. However, over much of human history, the environmental impacts of over exploitation orpollution have typically been quite local. However, widespread industrialization and rapid population growth changed this situation. Serve environmental damage and unsustainable exploitation occurred over the whole regions of the world. By the late twentieth century, the impacts had become truly global. The world has changed in many ways over the past 60 years. Most significantly, we are facing a rapidly deteriorating environment, which is causing disastrous effects on human health andwell being. Already about 40 percent of the world ‘population cannot get enough water, and this proportion is expected to increase to 50 percent in the next 15 years. Worldwide, outdoor air pollution kills about 800, 000 a year. Indoor air pollution is responsible for many more deaths. Almost billion people-nearly one-sixth of the world's population are hungry and about five million children die from malnutrition every year.
The World Health Organization estimates that more than one fourth of all diseases are disability is the result of poor environment conditions and this proportion is likely to increase without a safe and adequate supply of drinking water, clean air, nutritious food and safe guard climate, humanity cannot survive. The purpose of my present research paper is to analyze constitutional arrangements as well as environmental jurisdiction and sustainable development which is related with our Right to life.
In order to prepare my research paper, secondary data has been used. The secondary information has been collected from the related books, journals, reports and internet.
To highlight the relation between Right to healthySustainable Development.
To encourage the people to Environment and develop the values and spirit of duty towards clean Environment.
