Article Main Content

This paper examines the correlation between man, nature and the Creator (God) these three basic elements must be kept in balance. Between Environment, man and God are inseparable, that is, social, cultural, emotional, and ritual, spiritual relationships that are reflected in the religious-magical and cosmic communalistic principles. There is a very close connection between the environment (nature), man and God reflected in religious perspectives, views of customary law, ideology, and constitutional views, international law (international covenants, as well as approaches to environmental ethics (Biocentrism and ecocentrism). Therefore, the Environment (nature) is a Gift of God Almighty, as a source of life and livelihood, a means of equitable development, and a unifying element of the nation, as well as the Environment part of Human Rights. The COVID-19 pandemic gives a signal that there are problems in our relationship as humans with nature, in this case it arouses the function of environmental law as a field of law that regulates human relations with their environment to return to the philosophical aspects of human relations with the environment.
