is raising questions about whether climate litigation between countries is possible.in the U.S. found just a handful of countries collectively accounted for trillions of dollars in global income losses from 1990 to 2014.
Speaking to CTV's Your Morning on Monday, climate and energy program director for the Center for International Environmental Law Nikki Reisch said no single study will prove a legal case on its own, or unleash any "floodgates" of litigation."First and foremost, this study lays bare just how uneven the economic impacts of climate change are and which countries have contributed the most to this mounting cost," Reisch said.The analysis shows U.S.
Meanwhile, the impact of U.S. emissions on Canada resulted in a gain of US$247.2 billion, the analysis found. The study used U.S. dollar values adjusted for inflation in 2010. Reisch said the study shows it is possible to "connect the dots" between pollution in one country to harm in another, although taking a nation to court over climate damages would carry significant diplomatic costs.
"But that political calculus may well be changing because we are living in the midst of an accelerating climate crisis that is posing literally existential threats to some countries and communities," she said.
So ridiculous!!🤦♂️
Well they only countries they could sue are the ones that are the biggest polluters which are also the ones which the highest population ie China
Solar powered Arena sized homeless shelters are required. MissOilsendsYet Liberals financially forcing people to convert to green compliance that will get even more expensive.
Are you trying to promote a war? you got any evidence that the world will come to an end or just support Liberal agenda because it financially benefits those scoundrels?
Can we start with China and India?
The World isn't holding China to account for Covid, why would you think it could hold them to account for the green gouse gas emissions. Just more gaslighting for climate change.
Jesus give it up ! Sue China and India lol CRVFAKENEWS
I hope so. North America could sue China and India for ruining the planet.
Maybe we should first talk about sueing them for the release of the wuhan flu.

China? Plus, at less than 2% Canada won’t be sued. 🤦♂️🇨🇦
Sweet. Let’s bankrupt India and China
I hope so..the we can SUE THE SHIT OUT OF CHINA....

We should hold India and China accountable for their actions on environmental pollution.
I'd like to sue CTVNews for the amount of bull$hit they're emitting.
We should sue the U.S. for being the U.S.
