9781138614444: Human Rights Approaches to Climate Change

Synopsis

This book examines the link between climate change and human rights in a comprehensive manner. It looks at human rights approaches to climate change, including the jurisprudential bases for human rights and the environment, the theoretical framework governing human rights and the environment. It explores how the human rights framework can be used in relation to mitigation, adaption, and adjudication. Other chapters examine how vulnerable groups would be disproportionately affected by climate change and then goes on to discuss new categories of people rendered stateless or displaced by climate change and considers whether human rights law can adequately address these emerging issues.
