Environmental Law No. 2872 (Çevre Kanunu — EPR legal basis, 1983)

Environmental Law No. 2872 is Türkiye's foundational environmental statute (enacted 1983) establishing sustainable environment and development principles; it provides the legal basis for EPR and circular-economy regulations but is itself a framework law without specific EPR, product stewardship, or circular-economy mandates—classification as CE-relevant reflects its role as the constitutional anchor for sectoral EPR decrees, but the law itself is administrative/definitional rather than a direct policy instrument.
