Abstract

Abstract: The court case of Rosa Edelmira Matango Segovia against Petroproducto illustrates the serious environmental and personal impact derived from pollution and oil spills in Ecuador. The ruling, based on constitutional and environmental regulations, recognizes the violated rights, including the right to a healthy environment and access to justice. The company is ordered to compensate the plaintiff for material damage and damage to her health, highlighting the direct connection between environmental pollution and the degradation of terrestrial ecosystems. This ruling exemplifies how irresponsible industrial activities can compromise biodiversity and ecosystem services, contravening Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 15, which seeks to protect life on Earth. Crucially, pollution affects both human health and the ability of ecosystems to sustain life, underscoring the urgent need to adopt more sustainable industrial practices and strengthen environmental regulations to preserve Earth's ecosystems and ensure a sustainable future for people. all affected communities.
