The International Law and Policy Implications of Climate Change Litigation (2019)

Climate Change Litigation: A Handbook (edited by Wolfgang Kahl and Marc-Philippe Weller, published by Beck/Hart, 2019) investigates and discusses the respective issues arising in the current discourse on climate protection from different legal perspectives (including international law, European law and national public and civil law). In particular, it addresses the issue of “climate protection by courts”.

In Part 3, authours Dr. Marie-Claire Cordonnier Segger, Timothy Arvan and Chantalle Byron (et al) discuss the international law and policy implications of climate change litigation, within the context of sustainable developments in international investment law and policy related to renewable energy, climate change mitigation and adaptations.

This chapter provides answers and ideas both to scholars and practitioners in the field. Furthermore, it also provides an overview of the latest news in cases and progress in the field of climate change litigation.
