The study gives an analysis of the bringing about of norms relating to the protection of the environment. These norms are not necessarily acts of law. Other kinds of norms might also have effect on the protection of the environment: legal, political, ethical, religious, scientific, etc. norms. The relationship between the special sorts of environmental norms stands on the basis of every human environmentalist activity. Sometimes facts precede law, sometimes it is on the contrary. Scientific norms may also influence the forming of legal and other environmental rules. Social auto-regulation is emphasized, and light is shed on the problems caused by the mere guise of environmental normativity. It is stated that sustainable development is concomitant with the normative evolution.
