Description:Is part of the series Library of Environmental LawClimate justice has occupied a prominent place in environmental law for several years. The term refers to court cases in which questions about climate mitigation or adaptation are directly or indirectly addressed. While climate cases initially led to few legal successes, we have seen a turnaround in case law in recent years. Since the precedent rulings in the Dutch Urgenda case, courts seem more receptive to climate arguments. Meanwhile, hundreds of climate cases are pending worldwide and judges in Germany, the Netherlands, France, Ireland, Australia, the United States, Pakistan and India have ordered governments and sometimes even companies to tighten up their climate policy. The first climate statements are also ahead in Belgium.As a tribute to the richly filled career of Prof. Dr. Luc Lavrysen, one of the founders of Flemish environmental law, this book explores the legal questions involved in climate cases. We outline the outlines of an ever-changing dialogue about the possible role of law and judges in our dealings with climate change. Are human rights the ultimate lever for a more effective climate policy? Does a climate test play a role in spatial plans and projects? Can companies be legally forced to adopt a more ambitious climate policy? And can the judges finally help protect us against global warming that threatens life on the planet as we know it today?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
