Litigation increasingly features as a prominent factor driving governance of the climate crisis, as has been noted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in its 6th Assessment Report (2022). It has proven to be a powerful tool for holding governments and corporate actors accountable for the damage caused by their historic emissions and their failure to make sufficient plans and policies towards decarbonization. At the same time, the visions of climate justice that are compatible with, and achievable through, litigation remain unclear.  This workshop examines how the positions and arguments of judges and the litigating parties in climate cases intersects with questions of justice and the resulting distribution of opportunities, burdens and risks.
