Abstract

Climate change litigation has emerged as a pivotal frontier in environmental law and policy, serving as a catalyst for transformative legal and policy responses to the complex challenges posed by global climate change. This paper presents a comprehensive framework that systematically explores the multifaceted dimensions of climate change litigation. Beginning with an overview of the current climate crisis and its impact, the paper analyzes the legal foundations at both domestic and international levels, considering key environmental law principles that underpin litigation strategies. The study categorizes climate change litigation into distinct types, highlighting landmark cases and assessing evolving legal strategies. Challenges and opportunities faced by litigants and legal systems are scrutinized, emphasizing the crucial role of non-governmental organizations and civil society in advocacy and policy influence. The paper concludes by examining policy implications, forecasting future trends, and providing recommendations for stakeholders to enhance the efficacy of climate change litigation within environmental law and policy.
