A growing percentage of litigation has been filed in the Global South, with plaintiffs arguing they have a right to adequate climate policy.
But the report finds that lawsuits in the Global South represent a "growing percentage of global climate litigation," with more than 17% of lawsuits filed in developing countries including Small Island Developing States.
In addition to federal courts in individual nations, international human rights panels have handed down landmark rulings in recent years, forcing companies and governments to change course on the climate. Australian officials were ordered to adopt "significant climate adaptation measures" as a result of the historic ruling.
"Since 2020, few courts have yet to reach the merits of these types of claims, despite the growing body of science illustrating the connections," reads the report.
