Climate Change Case Reaches the International Court of Justice
Original: Climate Change at the International Court of Justice
The International Court of Justice is hearing a landmark case on climate change, examining states' legal obligations to protect the climate system and the consequences of failing to do so. The proceedings, driven by a UN General Assembly request championed by small island nations, are being closely watched worldwide for what they could mean for climate accountability and international law.
Why now: The ICJ's advisory proceedings on states' climate obligations are a major milestone in international climate law and accountability.
