United Nations Adopts Landmark Resolution On Climate Justice

A UN resolution was adopted on Wednesday that should make it easier to hold polluting countries legally accountable for failing to tackle the climate emergency, in a vote which was hailed as a historic victory for climate justice. The UN general assembly adopted by consensus the resolution spearheaded by Vanuatu, a tiny Pacific island nation vulnerable to extreme climate effects, and youth activists to secure a legal opinion from the international court of justice (ICJ) to clarify states’ obligations to tackle the climate crisis – and specify any consequences countries should face for inaction. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/mar/29/united-nations-resolution-climate-emergency-vanuatu

      Doing justice to climate ,is doing justice to ourselves. If it's hard to do this voluntarily then this is the only step.
