Global Trends in Climate Litigation 2025 Report Launch

The Global Trends in Climate Litigation report provides an annual overview of key developments in climate litigation worldwide and identifies emerging trends shaping the future of climate law and governance.

Launched on 26 June as part of London Climate Action Week, this year's report marks a decade since the landmark rulings in Urgenda Foundation v State of the Netherlands and Leghari v Federation of Pakistan. These cases pioneered the ‘rights-turn’ in climate litigation. Ten years on, the field has matured and diversified. In this edition, we expand our typology of case strategies to examine trends in cases heard by Supreme Courts and their equivalents, offering new insights into litigation outcomes at the highest judicial levels.

Speakers: Dr Danielle de Andrade Moreira; Professor Michael Gerrard; Professor Jacqueline Peel; Dr Joana Setzer, and Kate Cook. Chair: Professor Larry Kramer.
