Climate Litigation And Regulatory Shifts
Coverage from Sabin Center for Climate Change Law, Nature, and others

Climate litigation and climate governance are advancing through court rulings, disclosure rules, carbon border measures, and enforcement disputes in the United States, Europe, and other jurisdictions.
The strongest signal is legal pressure on companies and governments to document emissions, defend permitting decisions, and meet climate obligations.
The story has broadened from general climate litigation and adaptation policy into a more specific legal-governance frame centered on disclosure rules, border carbon measures, and enforcement disputes across multiple jurisdictions. New emphasis falls on corporate liability theories and compliance obligations, especially around emissions reporting, greenwashing, Scope 3, and duty-of-vigilance claims.
