Pandemie Covid - 19 a ochrana životního prostředí z právního pohledu Abstrakt Pandemie Covid - 19 zásadním způsobem ovlivnila téměř všechny aspekty života na Zemi, životní prostředí a jeho ochranu nevyjímaje. Cílem této práce je zjistit, jaký vliv měla, má a případně bude mít koronavirová pandemie na jednotlivé složky životní prostředí a jejich ochranu z právního pohledu. Vliv pandemie v oblasti práva životního prostředí můžeme pozorovat ve dvou rovinách. Tou první je její přímý, respektive materiální vliv na jednotlivé složky životního prostředí. Práce se zaměřila na vzduch, vodu a odpady, jakožto složky, jež byly pandemií ovlivněny nejvíce. Materiální vliv pandemie na životní prostředí a jeho složky znamená, že se v přímém důsledku pandemie zlepšila, či zhoršila jejich kvalita, případně kvantita. Druhá rovina vlivu pandemie na jednotlivé složky životního prostředí se projevila nepřímo, a to reakcí práva na změny ve složkách životního prostředí způsobené pandemií Covid-19. V této rovině bylo možné pozorovat, jak pružně, rychle a efektivně zvládlo, nebo nezvládlo právo reagovat na aktuální události. Práce je rozdělena do sedmi kapitol, z nichž nejpodrobnější je druhá z nich, která analyzuje přímý a nepřímý vliv pandemie Covid - 19 na některé vybrané složky životního prostředí.

Karfilátová, Gabriela ; Stejskal, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Falteisková, Sabina (referee)
Freedom of Movement in the Environmental Law Abstract This thesis is concerning freedom of movement in the environmental law, i.e. the limitation of movement stemming from environmental legislation. Firstly, it is a current issue due to the COVID-19 pandemic - as the countryside has become a popular destination for many visitors. Secondly, it is a general issue - as the human population expands or as there are new possible ways of spending free time due to technological progress. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the current state of legislation in this area and to assess it in regard to satisfying its purpose, i.e. environmental protection. It was ascertained that the environmental legislation rather reached its goals, as it offered flexible protection to the specific needs of individual areas. The legislations drawbacks comprised of legal vacuums - it seldom contained provisions for movement in winter countryside or it did not include sufficiently general rules to apply on every manner of movement of people in nature. Another issue of the legislation is the lack of public awareness, its considerable fragmentation and limited chance of it being enforced due to understaffed public guards. Key words Environmental Law, Freedom of Movement, Environmental Protection
