Coalición Floresta · Forest & Environmental Law Library
Español (source)Esta Sala ha reiteradamente señalado que la protección del ambiente es un interés difuso, cuya tutela mediante el recurso de amparo exige que el recurrente acredite un perjuicio personal y directo sobre sus derechos fundamentales. En el presente caso, el recurrente no ha demostrado que la actividad agrícola desarrollada en la finca colindante le cause un daño cierto, actual y personalizado que transgreda su derecho a un ambiente sano y ecológicamente equilibrado. Por el contrario, sus alegatos se dirigen a denunciar una situación genérica de incumplimiento normativo, cuyo control corresponde a las autoridades administrativas y judiciales ordinarias.
Además, consta en el expediente que la propiedad donde se realiza el cultivo no está inscrita como bosque en el Registro Nacional, por lo que no resulta aplicable la regulación especial de la Ley Forestal sobre áreas de protección y restricción de uso. Tampoco se acreditó que el inmueble se encuentre dentro de un área silvestre protegida, declarada como tal por el Estado, que amerite una intervención cautelar de esta Sala.
English (translation)This Chamber has repeatedly held that environmental protection is a diffuse interest, whose protection through the amparo remedy requires the petitioner to demonstrate personal and direct harm to his fundamental rights. In this case, the petitioner has not shown that the agricultural activity carried out on the adjoining farm causes him a certain, current, and personalized harm that violates his right to a healthy and ecologically balanced environment. On the contrary, his allegations are aimed at reporting a generic situation of regulatory non-compliance, whose control corresponds to ordinary administrative and judicial authorities.
Furthermore, the record shows that the property where the crop is grown is not registered as forest in the National Registry, so the special regulation of the Forestry Law on protection and use-restriction areas is not applicable. Nor was it demonstrated that the property is within a protected wild area, declared as such by the State, that would warrant an interim intervention by this Chamber.
