This report explores the Paris Agreement and the international legal framework that supports global and domestic climate action. It highlights the crucial role of judges in holding their governments accountable for their climate pledges.
In 2020, the Paris Agreement is the pinnacle of international law on climate change. It orchestrates global climate action over the coming decades. Countries agreed to limit global warming to well below 2 C above preindustrial times, closer to 1.5 C. Humankind will only achieve this temperature goal if we domesticate our international climate commitments.
