Much has been said and written about yesterday’s advisory opinion of the #ICJ on the obligations of states in relation to the fight against #ClimateChange. What I find truly remarkable is the last paragraph on judicial self-restraint and on climate as a global challenge

Very clear statement #RuleOfLaw
