Climate Change Litigation Cases in Context (en Inglés) - Camille Cameron;Patricia Galvão Ferreira;Riley Weyman

Covering cases from across the Global North and South, chapters explore national, transnational and international implications of litigation. They highlight the diversity of cases and litigants turning to courts to assert, defend, or challenge climate-related duties, including youth, senior and Indigenous groups, as well as climate action NGOs. Expert authors assess the ways in which courts are being called on to hear and decide climate change claims, the strategies that litigants are adopting to advance their claims and the responses of governments, corporations and other defendants.

Researchers and students of environmental law, climate science, corporate liability and climate governance will benefit from this book’s valuable insights. It is also an essential resource for legal practitioners advising litigants in environmental and climate matters, as well as policymakers involved in climate law.
