Abstract:

The academic literature scarcely covers court cases from the Global South on climate change. Hence, this paper examines the impact of existing climate litigation on shaping Africa’s climate action and the role of courts in climate change jurisprudence on the continent. The paper determines that: NGOs are key actors in challenging state granted environmental authorisations of projects whose activities violate human rights, affect climate change, and contravene formal procedures. Courts are deciding that fossil fuel activities like gas flaring violate fundamental human rights and exacerbate clim

The last decade has seen an increase in the number, specificity and importance of laws codifying national and international responses to climate change.

Abstract:

Climate change is a global issue that affects every country, a pressing issue that requires global response. Nigeria is one of the countries that are most affected by climate change. The Nigerian government has recognized the impact of climate change on the country's economy, health, and environment, and has put in place laws and policies to address the issue. However, the question remains whether these laws and policies are effective in mitigating the impact of climate change or if they are simply symbolic gestures with no real impact on the ground.

A very important issue that needs to be addressed urgently across the globe is the issue of climate change. Nigeria as a country is not left out in the battle against climate change. One of the major things that results in the change in climate is the low level or inadequate laws governing activities which lead to climate change. The laws available are ineffective as the level of compliance with the existing laws is extremely low; ignorance on the part of Nigerians is another major issue as an average Nigerian is not aware that his/her day-to-day activities might result in a change in climatic

Climate change is a fundamental threat to biodiversity. Climate mitigation in general, and Negative-Emission Technologies (nets) in particular, have the potential to benefit biodiversity by reducing climate impacts. Domestic laws could help to ensure that nets have benefits for biodiversity adaptation to climate change (e.g. reducing land clearing and habitat loss and facilitating habitat restoration, corridors for species’ migration, and broader ecological resilience). Domestic laws will also need to govern trade-offs between nets and biodiversity adaptation (e.g. increased competition for la

Research is necessary because environmental law is so intricate on several levels of complexity including legal, scientifical, socio-political, geographical and economical. Environmental jurists, judges, lawyers, legislatures, executives, environmentalists and experts need a rational, intellectual approach and research to understand and highlight these complexities with sustainable solutions. Environmentalists come forward to explain the complex ecological and socio-political nature of environmental problems and the interrelationships between such problems and different aspects of relevant leg

Abstract:

Climate has always changed, and will always change. The present global warming (1970-2000) is real, but driven by natural forces (NGW) not anthropogenic (CO2) forces (AGW). Observational facts and physical laws set the frames of what is possible, and what must be discarded as nonsense. Despite this the IPCC concept of AGW forcing has gained remarkable international recognition; not because of its own merits but thanks to a very effective lobbying campaign. It has rather taken the form of a new world order with obeying, paying and silence in the center, all strong signs of the establishment of

Abstract:

As part of a project on Governing Climate Innovation in Africa, this paper examines Nigeria’s climate adaptation innovation architecture. Through comprehensive doctrinal and desk research, it explores the key laws, policies, institutions and initiatives shaping the country’s adaptation responses to climate change. The paper underscores the intersections of climate adaptation innovation and intellectual property rights in the context of Nigerian realities and presents notable case studies from the food and agricultural sectors: Rotimi Williams (Kereksuk Rice Farm and Resolute 4.0) and Babajide

Abstract:

AbstractA new calving criterion is introduced, which predicts calving where the depth of surface crevasses equals ice height above sea level. Crevasse depth is calculated from strain rates, and terminus position and calving rate are therefore functions of ice velocity, strain rate, ice thickness and water depth. We couple the calving criterion with three ‘sliding laws’, in which velocity is controlled by (1) basal drag, (2) lateral drag and (3) a combination of the two. In model 1, velocities and strain rates are dependent on effective pressure, and hence ice thickness relative to water depth.

Abstract:

Environmental migration is becoming a reality due to climate change caused by human activities. Environmental migrants, also known as climate migrants, are individuals forced to leave their usual homes, either temporarily or permanently, and relocate within or outside their home country as a result of sudden or progressive climate change. These environmental alterations negatively impact their lives or living conditions. The term “environmental migrant” was used by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) in Nairobi in 1985, and member states of the International Organization for Migratio

Abstract:

With the increasingly serious problem of climate change, environmental and resource protection law plays an increasingly important role in dealing with climate change. This paper first analyzes the basic framework of environmental and resource protection law under the background of global climate change and clarifies its important functions in slowing down greenhouse gas emissions, promoting green development, and promoting sustainable resource utilization. Through a systematic review of relevant domestic and foreign laws and regulations, it is found that China’s existing environmental and res

Abstract:

Purpose: The weight of overwhelming scientific evidence indicates that human-induced climate change is occurring in Nigeria, with the northern areas of the country faced with massive desertification. This has forced the northern herders down south in search of green pastures and on the farms of southerners who depend on these crops for a living. The resultant incessant clashes, this time with more sophisticated arms and weapons, take their toll in lives and property. The major problem envisaged in this work is the erroneous belief by the Federal Government that the proposed establishment of ca

This article will provide a critical analysis of the causes and impacts of gun violence and the contemporary mass killings in the USA, assessing the effectiveness of federal firearm laws such as stand-your-ground, open carry, and permit laws in tackling the issue. This article places emphasis on the factors responsible for these incidents and how they were shaped, along with their immediate and long-term impacts. The significance of the Second Amendment will also be explored, along with how it is interpreted. Therefore, it will explore whether existing gun laws in the USA make it all the more

Abstract:

Climate change is a global issue common to the whole world regardless of continent, nationality, tribe, sex, or age. The temperature is rising due to the greenhouse effect as the greenhouse-gas emissions in the atmosphere are increasing. The average global temperature is increasing continuously and is predicted to rise by 2oC until 2100, which would cause substantial economic losses at the global level. Cybersecurity is likewise a global issue common to everyone, just as climate change and its interaction with the physical world phenomena (e.g., weather, climate, water, and oceans) is mostly n

Background. The intersection of environmental governance and digital innovation has introduced new opportunities for addressing climate change through technology-driven solutions. However, the role of legal norms in facilitating or hindering the development and deployment of climate technologies remains underexplored. Purpose. This study investigates how legal frameworks can effectively support digital green technologies—such as AI-based environmental monitoring, blockchain for carbon tracking, and smart infrastructure for renewable energy—as tools for achieving sustainable development goals.
