Summary

In 1994, Uzbekistan incorporated article 1996 into its criminal codes, proclaiming “pollution or damage of land, water, or atmospheric air, resulted in mass disease incidence of people, death of animals, birds, or fish other grave consequences shall be punished…” However, a 2003 criminal code replaced Uzbekistan’s 1994 criminal code, eliminating any mention of ecocide.
