Judges are also experiencing difficulties adapting existing judicial procedures to remedy government climate inaction. The new Model Statute would lower such hurdles. Building on recent successes and judicial reasoning, it highlights the role of litigation in setting requirements for governments to protect the public.
With the advice of leading experts, the Model Statute provides detailed rationales, precedents and 23 specific Articles for reforms.
