The European Union has changed its paradigm in the formation of its Environmental Law.

Any delay in the establishment of a world eco-cultural peace will only increase the cost of survival".

However, the European Union noted the negative financial consequences of the principle and its legal fragility and turned to the principle of fault-based liability in 2004.
