## WHAT THE EVIDENCE SAYS

A peer-reviewed comment argues that environmental legal frameworks commonly divide climate, biodiversity and pollution into categories that do not match their interacting Earth-system dynamics. It proposes more adaptive, process-oriented governance supported by predictive monitoring, modeling and coordination across scales.

## WHY IT MATTERS / OUR READ

The useful question for environmental decision systems is not only whether regulations cover each issue, but whether the governance architecture can respond to feedbacks, thresholds and changing conditions without waiting for a category-specific failure.

## CAVEATS / UNCERTAINTY

This is a scholarly argument and synthesis, not an empirical evaluation showing that the proposed legal architecture produces better ecological outcomes. Implementation feasibility and institutional tradeoffs remain jurisdiction-specific.
