Climate Change Liability

Reviews / Votes

'. . . this is a valuable contribution to the ongoing academic and practitioner's debate about using existing laws and regulation to tackle the climate change (and damage) problem, as well as some degree of de lege ferenda or "wishful thinking".' -- Roda Verheyen, Carbon and Climate Law Review 'This book has admirable breadth, and provides a good overview of a great number of relevant and interesting issues.' -- Maria Lee, Journal of Environmental Law 'Climate Change Liability is a recent and most welcome addition to this growing body of literature. . . an easily recommendable book. It includes very informative contributions, interesting suggestions and insightful analysis if essential aspects of litigating climate change claims. Overall, this book adds considerably to the understanding of climate change liability and will prove to be essential reading not only for all practitioners and academics, but also for policymakers, companies and other stakeholders involved in the area.' -- Riccardo Sciaudone, European Energy and Environmental Law Review 'As the first of its kind, the book is a very welcome introduction to the important legal field of climate litigation. Much more is - it is to be hoped - to come. . . Peeters and Faure provide fertile intellectual ground for lawyers, students, judges, civil servants and politicians. The hope is that they build upon the constructive perspectives provided by this book and turn liability into a successful tool for promoting the cause of climate change mitigation.' -- Christina Voigt, Environmental Liability
