Abstract
![CDATA[One of several reasons that lead to global warming appears to be due to the large contribution of greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions. Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) contributes about 39% of global greenhouse-gas emissions. Although OECD already has a legal environmental framework for its members, the regulations is still based on its members self-awareness rather than mandatory. Simultaneously, each country also has a legal system for the protection and preservation of the environment for each country. Consequently, the unification of the environmental law system for the whole organization is needed to reduce anthropogenic GHG emissions. The paper reviews international legal and regulation system of ten countries in OECD that have the largest amount of GHG emissions. Then based on the analysis, the paper provides recommendations for improving environmental mandatory regulations for the organization.]]
