Causation in National and International Climate Change Litigation

&lt;p&gt;Chapter 1. Setting the Stage for Climate Change Litigation.-&amp;nbsp;Chapter 2. Causation in Climate Change Litigation.-&amp;nbsp;Chapter 3. Factual Causation.-&amp;nbsp;Chapter 4. Normative Causation.- Chapter 5. Conclusions.&lt;/p&gt;


'Jaw-dropping' The Economist 'A mind-altering and unforgettable read' Adam Tooze 'If you wish to know how the world really works, read this book' Misha Glenny A globe-trotting investigation into the catastrophic reality of the multi-billion-dollar global garbage trade. Dumps and landfills around the world are overflowing. The millions of tonnes of garbage generated every day have given rise to waste wars, cons and cover ups across thousands of miles and multiple oceans. And few people have any idea they're happening. Roaming across five continents, Alexander Clapp delves deep inside the world of Javanese recycling gangsters, cruise ship dismantlers in the Aegean, Tanzanian plastic pickers, whistle-blowing environmentalists in the jungles of Guatemala, and a community of Ghanaian boys who burn Western cellphones and televisions for cents an hour. He reveals how most of our trash actually lives a secret second life, getting shipped, smuggled or dumped from one country onto another, with devastating consequences for the poorest nations of the world. Waste Wars is a jaw-dropping exposé of how and why, for the last forty years, our garbage has spawned a massive global black market, one that offloads our consumption footprints onto distant continents, pristine landscapes, and unsuspecting populations.

Chinese Maritime Cases Series

China (the Mainland of PRC) trades with other states in trillions of USD every year, and about 95% of the cargoes are carried by ocean-going ships calling at hundreds of Chinese ports each singe day. Due to the enormous trade volume and shipping activities, foreign ships, companies and professionals are often caught in the Chinese maritime law and court. The foreign parties involved in Chinese litigation or dispute resolution and their lawyers are more and more enthusiastic to study Chinese maritime cases in order to deal with their own cases properly or, if possible, predicate the potential risks and avoid the disputes outright. However, to date, no Chinese series casebook has ever been published. Now, for the first time, the authors offer this series casebook of delicately selected Chinese maritime judgments. Each year, the book selects a number of leading, innovative and influential Chinese maritime judgments and presents full English translation of them, together with summary, to the readers so that they can have insights of how the Chinese maritime judges interpret, apply and develop Chinese maritime law in practice. The book will benefit the worldwide students, academics, practitioners and industrial people who may be engaged in international trade, shipping, insurance and other transactions concerning China. The book will also indemnify to certain extent the situation that there is lack of authoritative sources available to foreign personnel to look into how Chinese justice system functions and grows in real life.

Chinese Maritime Cases

International Law in Asia

This book is a scholarly compilation that explores the diverse and evolving landscape of public maritime law across Asia. This book provides an in-depth analysis of key legislative frameworks, safety and security measures, marine environmental governance, and seafarer welfare within the region. Divided into four thematic sections-Public Maritime Legislations, securing Maritime Safety, Prevention of Vessel-Source Pollution, and Seafarer Rights-the book features contributions from esteemed academics and professionals across Asia. It offers country-specific insights, comparative analyses, and case studies from nations such as South Korea, China, Vietnam, Mongolia, Singapore, and others. The work aims to highlight the unique challenges faced by Asian countries while addressing global maritime issues such as environmental sustainability, safety regulations, and human rights.


By bringing together diverse perspectives from experts across the region, the book contributes meaningfully to the discourse on maritime governance while supporting sustainable development and legal innovation in the Asian maritime sector. It serves as a valuable resource for legal scholars, policymakers, maritime professionals, and students interested in understanding the complexities of maritime governance in the Asian context.

Farmed Animals and the Law: Legal Pathways Beyond Intensive Farming is a concise and practical guide to the laws regulating farmed animals in the UK, placing them within the wider context of food system governance and climate commitments. Farmed animal law is often equated with welfare legislation, but in reality it spans a wide range of domains: subsidies and competition, investment and finance, markets and trade, food safety and standards, sanitary and phytosanitary rules, labelling and consumer protection, as well as planning and environmental law. Together, these frameworks shape the UK food system and influence how the country meets its international obligations, including under the Paris Agreement. With around 85% of farmed animals in the UK reared in intensive systems, the handbook focuses in particular on the regulation and future of intensive farming. Despite their importance, these legal regimes remain fragmented and underexplored. Lawyers working in specialist fields often lack a broader point of reference, while NGOs and campaigners may not have the expertise to navigate technical frameworks. This book addresses that gap by providing a clear, accessible overview that combines legal accuracy with usability. Each chapter is designed for quick reference: setting out the relevant statutes, regulations, and case law, explaining their operation, and identifying the practical implications for enforcement and accountability. The book moves from the immediate level of farm welfare and planning permission through to international trade and climate regimes, tracing the links between animal agriculture, markets, and sustainability. The result is a unique resource - authoritative yet approachable, academically grounded yet practice-focused - for lawyers, students, NGOs, and others concerned with the future of farming, food, and climate. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Property and Land Law online service.

Global Challenges in the Environmental Humanities

Adopting a multidisciplinary approach to climate adjudication, this open access book addresses how adjudicators decide cases by considering the influence of psychology, philosophy, legal education, film, literature, political economy, political ecology, judicial appointments, history, and climate science on their decision-making and ultimately on the (inconsistent) outcomes in climate cases. Drawing upon the humanities, science of climate change and/or social sciences to identify extra-legal factors that may drive the decision-making processes and outcomes of climate cases, this book uses case studies from different jurisdictions across the globe, addressing climate cases decided or pending in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin and North America, and Oceania. In all, the volume will: - Engage with extra-legal influence to how show judges and arbitrators make their decisions in climate cases, shedding light on the inconsistent responses that climate cases have generated so far - Challenge assumptions of legal universalism, by recognising differences in how the law works in various - Inform actors involved in climate litigation (lawyers, judges, arbitrators, disputants), policymakers, and the public about how cases are decided. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Universities of Cambridge, Newcastle and Oxford.

This book argues for the urgent need for evidence-based solutions to the climate crisis by bridging scientific progress, policy, and finance. It offers a comprehensive framework for achieving climate justice through green economics, sustainable financing, and equitable adaptation measures. Despite progress, global emissions continue to rise, and adaptation efforts remain inconsistent. The book assesses these gaps and proposes aligning economic incentives, financial instruments, and governance structures with climate goals.
Addressing the unequal burden of climate change, the volume further discusses mechanisms for inclusive green finance and equitable adaptation strategies. It also examines the impact of climate change on public health, advocating for integrated frameworks that prioritize prevention and resilience. The book calls for a shift from project-based funding to portfolio-level investments in clean energy and reforestation. Combining technology, social sciences, and economics, the book promotes community-driven solutions and effective communication strategies to strenghten informed, coordinated action toward a sustainable future.

Space Law and Policy

This book explores the intersection of international law, space exploration, and global equity, focusing on the emerging legal and policy challenges of space resource mining. As technological advancements and geopolitical competition drive humanity toward a new era of space exploration, the governance of outer space resources becomes a critical issue. The book examines the implications of international competition over space mining, highlighting the potential for conflict and the need for equitable resource distribution.&nbsp;
Each chapter presents fundamental concepts, policies, and contemporary developments, encouraging readers to critically assess the evolving legal frameworks. With contributions from leading space law scholars, the book offers a holistic and structured approach to understanding the complexities of resource mining beyond Earth.
Beyond legal and policy aspects, the book addresses ethical and sustainability concerns, emphasizing the risks of space resource exploitation mirroring historical patterns of colonial dominance. It advocates for inclusive frameworks that ensure all nations, not just technologically advanced ones, benefit from space mining. The book also considers environmental challenges and the necessity of long-term sustainability in outer space activities.
Designed for scholars, policymakers, industry professionals, and students, this book serves as a valuable resource in international law, space policy, and global governance. Given the limited literature on space resource mining and Artemis Accords, this work offers a timely and unique contribution to the growing discourse on fair and sustainable space exploration.

Die Zukunft der Konfliktlösung

Smart Mediation

Written by leading experts, this book provides the first comprehensive and critical exploration of Earth system law. Environmental law, as it stands, does not meet the challenge of governing the many complex planetary transformations of the Anthropocene. Earth system law marks a new legal paradigm-replacing the fragmented, human-centred, state-based approach with an integrated, Earth-centred approach to planetary governance, purpose-built for our turbulent epoch. The book offers innovative proposals for legal principles, actors, institutions, and ethics designed to safeguard the stability and integrity of Earth's life-support systems. It also delivers the first full stocktake of the Earth system law framework and its scholarship, coupled with a forward-looking research and implementation agenda. Earth System Law is for all those who are frustrated by the persistent inability of environmental law to address the interconnected governance challenges of the Anthropocene-and for those ready to help shape the next legal frontier. Researchers, students, practitioners, and policymakers alike will find here both the vision and the tools to rethink law for a human-dominated planet.
