There is no definite meaning to this right; but forensuring this human right, conservation of the environment and its processes is sine qua non. It isfor this reason that this right should be understood as a right to have the present environment in itssustainable form so that it could serve the purpose of the present generation and of all generations tocome. 75 Some exhaustible natural resources, like forests, thus, have to be in a sustainable manner sothat they do not deprive all coming generations also. This requires that deforestation andreforestation must go hand-in-hand. Some other exhaustible natural resources, such as fossil fuels,have to be used with paramount eftorts to discover alternatives to them so that energy needs of allcoming generations are fulfilled. Guaranteeing this right and its proper enforcement is imperativelyrequired for achieving environmental justice also.76 There are a number of international legalinstruments that guarantee human rights, in effect, and at the same time, also ensure right to ahealthful environment as they are not separable. The best example is the right to life. Conservationof the environment and its processes enhance right to life; on the contrary, a degraded environmentand its deleterious processes will certainly impair the quality of life, and a highly pollutedenvironment or highly imbalanced environment may even take lives. There are some internationallegal instruments \vhich guarantee right to a healthful environment. The paper briefly discussesabout these international legal instruments. It also examines the Tehran Declaration on HumanRiQ.hts and the Environment and the Cairo Declaration on Human RiQ.hts in Islam.
