Traduction de «atteinte à l'environnement » (Français → Anglais) :

Pursuant to Article 191 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Union policy on the environment is based on the precautionary principle and on the principles that preventive action should be taken, that environmental damage should, as a priority, be rectified at source and that the polluter should pay.

As far as the environmental protection action goes, it's modelled after the provision in the Ontario Environmental Bill of Rights.

The Directive puts in place, for the first time in the EU, a comprehensive liability regime for damage to the environment.

Assurpol is a co-reinsurance pool for the covering of environmental damage risks (accidental and gradual pollution) originating in certain industrial and commercial installations situated, notably, in France, which cause particular health and environmental hazards.

The notified agreements allow the insurer-members individually to underwrite environmental risks of a non-accidental nature by providing them with a guarantee of the availability of reinsurance through the pool.
