The concept "precautionary principle" is generally considered to have arisen in English from a translation of the German term Vorsorgeprinzip in the 1970s.... (Wikipedia)


Vorsorgeprinzip


The precautionary principle has come to the fore in risk discourse. It calls for early measures to avoid and mitigate environmental damage and health hazards in the face of uncertainty. This paper reviews the history of and current research on the principle and suggests areas where further scrutiny is needed. The origin of the precautionary principle is traced back to three sources: the general idea of precaution, specific nonjudicial codes of conduct and arguments from precaution, and law texts.

The precautionary principle originates from the German principle of foresight or Vorsorge...

(Vorsorgprinzip, the precautionary principle,) became enshrined as the fifteenth principle of the June 1992 Declaration of the Rio Conference on Environment and Development, which states that ‘[W]here there are threats of serious or irreversible damage, lack of full scientific certainty shall not be used as a reason for postponing cost-effective measures to prevent environmental degradation’ (Jacobs 1995, p. 35). The basic concept has tremendous popular and scientific appeal, and has been written into numerous subsequent national and international agreements, such as the Australian Intergovernmental Agreement on the Environment, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Biodiversity Convention. Nevertheless, numerous definitions and interpretations of the principle exist and there is little consensus about how the principle should be implemented.
