The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the UN's highest court, is set to deliver a landmark advisory opinion on the legal obligations of countries to address climate change. This decision, prompted by the Pacific island nation of Vanuatu and supported by over 100 nations and organizations, could set a powerful legal precedent for climate accountability worldwide. Although the ruling is not legally binding, it is expected to strongly influence future climate litigation and shape international climate policy. Vulnerable nations and youth activists have played a key role in bringing this case forward, seeking stronger legal frameworks to protect against climate harm. The outcome is widely seen as a defining moment for climate justice and could accelerate global efforts to combat the climate crisis.
