UN's top court says healthy environment is a human right in historic climate ruling
A "clean, healthy and sustainable environment" is a human right and, if countries fail to take "appropriate action to protect the climate system", they could be in violation of international law, according to the UN's top court.
Judges at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) have just delivered a long-awaited advisory opinion on nations' climate obligations and the consequences they face if they don't fulfil them...
Wait for it...
Wait for it...
It also said that countries harmed by climate change could also be entitled to reparations, but what they are owed must be decided on a case-by-case basis.
They never disappoint do they?
