Youth Climate Lawsuit Takes on European CountriesOn September 27, the European Court of Human Rights heard a case that could force 32 European countries* to take stronger action on climate change. They filed a complaint with the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in 2020. They argued that European countries aren’t doing enough to prevent climate change. They say that the risks from the climate crisis are growing, and will continue to affect them and any children they may have. The lawyers say that European countries are already taking serious action to fight climate change.
