Climate Science in Legal Contexts Scientific and legal communities often use similar words differently. This resource is designed to help lawyers navigate scientific concepts that frequently arise in climate litigation.

"Climate Science in Legal Contexts: A Glossary of Key Terms for Lawyers" from @ucs.org, @granthamlse.bsky.social & @nyulaw.bsky.social provides simple definitions of scientific terminology for lawyers to understand these concepts in legal contexts. #ClimateLitigation #ScienceCommunication

The countdown is on. With our friends Lawyers for Climate Action NZ, we’re taking the Minister of Climate Change to court for hitting delete on more than 35+ climate policies and having an “emissions reduction plan” that doesn’t actually reduce emissions (amongst other things).

We can't address climate harm without regulating the corporate activities that produce it.

Courts now evaluating if State climate commitments are implemented in practice, including failure to regulate high-emitting sectors.
