Abstract:
Background and Aim: Oil trade, as a macroeconomic activity, can have many negative consequences for communities and ecosystems. Air and water pollution, climate change and destruction of ecosystems are among the challenges that arise as a result of oil activities and directly affect the health of communities, especially in developing countries. This research examines the environmental effects of oil extraction and trade and its effects on public health and evaluates their relationship with international law.
Method: This research is of a theoretical type, the research method is descriptive-analytical and the method of collecting information is library and by referring to books and articles.
Ethical Considerations: In the present research, the principles of trustworthiness, honesty, impartiality and originality of the work have been respected.
Results: The lack of coordination between national regulations and the principles of international law causes insufficient reactions to the environmental effects of the Taft trade. Legal reforms are needed to strengthen existing frameworks and comply with international treaties.
Conclusion: It is vital to strengthen the approaches of international health law and create a balance between economic development and public health protection. By creating effective policies and regulations as well as international cooperation, the negative effects of oil trade will be minimized and public health and the environment will be maintained at different levels.
