Utilization of natural resources through environmental empowerment is an intention to improve public welfare through the Pancasila philosophy. The occurrence of floods that have occurred at this time both the Jabodetabek area and other regions illustrate the preservation of the environment not running well. For this reason, efforts and strategies need to be made to anticipate disasters that will occur in the future. In accordance with the foundation of the Pancasila state that has been engraved in the life of the nation and state of Indonesia, the role of the Pancasila for environmental protection needs to be put forward. This article aims to prevent the dominance of law enforcement in the field of environment but the role of the Pancasila perspective as a way of life and state ideology must be put forward. Pancasila is a guideline for maintaining and developing community welfare through a harmonious, balanced environment in order to improve the ongoing development at this time. This research uses a normative approach to library research, by conducting a study of the nation's life view of Pancasila and analyzing the applicable legal provisions, specifically in the field of environmental law. The results of this study are to put forward the Pancasila perspective approach in managing the environment in order to develop patterns of harmony, harmony and balance both in meeting physical and spiritual needs. The conclusion of this article is that environmental management has not been carried out in the perspective of the Pancasila perspective, so that the practice of Pancasila values has not been carried out consistently in developing environmental aspects.

This article analyses the role of the World Heritage Convention in the Arctic, particularly the role of Indigenous people in environmental protection and governance of natural, mixed and transboundary properties. It outlines the Convention in an Arctic context, profiles Arctic properties on the World Heritage List and Tentative List, and considers Arctic properties that may appear on the List of World Heritage in Danger. It gives detailed consideration to examples of Arctic natural, mixed, and potentially transboundary, properties of greatest significance to Indigenous people with reference to their environmental protection and management. In doing so, it reviews and analyses recent high-level critiques of the application of the Convention in the Arctic. Conclusions follow, the most significant of which is that the Convention and its Operational Guidelines must be reformed to be consistent with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People.

Corporate environmental investment has long been recognized as a non-market strategy that helps secure both economic and social benefits. However, we know much less about how environmental investment affects corporate innovation. We argue that investment in environmental protection is an important source of institutional legitimacy for firms to secure government resources, thus providing financial support for corporate innovation activities. Using a sample of Chinese industrial firms, we find that firms investing more in environmental protection can receive more government subsidies and then have better innovation performance. This study emphasizes the mechanism of government resources, which enriches our understanding of the effect of environmental investment on corporate innovation.

Public concern about the environmental impact of economic activities has significantly increased around the globe in recent years. Within the scope of unlawful acts, environmental delicts are among the most serious ones in terms of environmental impact, the consequences of which directly affect the quality and development of agriculture as the main branch of economic activity. The issue of environmental protection and liability can be approached from different perspectives, and the focus of the present research will be on the analysis of environmental delicts committed by legal entities, taking into consideration the importance and role of these entities in agriculture. In addition to general assumptions on legal regulation of the liability of legal entities, the authors also presented the results of research on legal entities reported, charged, and convicted for environmental delicts in the Republic of Serbia in the period from 2010 to 2017, with a special emphasis on the analysis of results obtained in the abovementioned research areas for the territory of AP Vojvodina.
