The Environmental Management Agency (EMA) has called for the establishment of environmental courts to ensure people who are guilty of environmental offences receive proper sentences.
Currently, environmental offences are not being tried in specialised courts a situation which the watchdog thinks is not good enough.

In some cases people are building on wetlands thereby disturbing the environment.
