An MSP proposes tougher environmental enforcement as the first minster prepares to head to COP28.
Major polluters could be jailed for up to 20 years under an "ecocide" bill proposed in the Scottish Parliament.
"We must stop eco-criminals in their tracks, and ecocide law is the crime deterrent that our planet urgently needs. "The Scottish government will use COP28 to call on all to urgently step up to address the injustice at the heart of climate change by supporting those communities who are suffering the most but have done the least to cause climate impacts, including through our leadership on loss and damage."
COP28 is the 28th annual United Nations climate meeting at which governments discuss how to limit and prepare for future climate change. COP26 was held in Glasgow in 2021.
