Youth-Led Climate Breakthrough in South Korea

Court rules South Korea climate goals 'unconstitutional'

Court rules that the government's limited climate targets violate the constitution as they do "not sufficiently protect the basic rights of the people"

I’m thrilled to see South Korea's Constitutional Court make history by ruling the country's climate goals as unconstitutional, ensuring future generations' rights to a safe environment. This landmark decision, led by young activists, shows that climate justice is possible when we fight for it. It sets an inspiring precedent for stronger climate action across Asia and globally! 🌍💚 #ClimateAction #FutureGenerations
