Description
Summary:The present research focuses on the title: "The use of combustion flares in the oil industry violates the rights of nature," and its intention arises from the fact that in Ecuador, oil activity has been carried out since 1925, which has remained one of the main sources of income for the country's economy. Many of Ecuador's oil reserves are located in the Amazon basin, which is rich in biodiversity and home to indigenous communities. However, oil production in the Amazon is associated with significant environmental impacts, including deforestation, river pollution, and conflicts with indigenous communities. These issues have led to debates about the sustainability, social responsibility, and environmental impact of the oil industry. The purpose of this research is to conduct a doctrinal-legal study regarding the use of combustion flares within the oil industry and how their use affects the rights of nature. The research employs analytical, historical, deductive, scientific, statistical, synthetic, and inductive methods, as well as survey and interview techniques. The results of these methods contribute to the conclusions, recommendations, and proposal for reform presented to ensure the protection of nature's rights and the right to live in a healthy environment, both of which are being violated by the excessive use of combustion flares.
