The conference issued the Declaration on the Human Environment, a statement containing 26 principles and 109 recommendations (now referred to as the Stockholm Declaration) from which a body of international environmental law has now developed. The creation of an environmental agency was also approved, now known as <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/UNEP\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"UNEP\" rel=\"noopener\">UNEP<\/a>. In addition, there was the adoption of a Stockholm Action Program. There were no legally binding outcomes resulting from the Stockholm Conference. Principle 21 of the Declaration was a restatement of law already in existence since Roman times, namely that of &#8216;good neighbourliness&#8217; (Wikipedia).<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Stockholm Declaration is the first document to explicitly recognise the right to a healthy environment, the declaration places great emphasis on protecting both species and their habitat.
