Emission Reduction Purchase Agreements, the Evolution of the Dialectic Relationship of Private Contracts and International Environmental Law at the Heart of the Global Climate Regime
In May 2013, an instrument near the summit of Mauna Loa in Hawaii recorded a long-feared climate milestone: the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has now exceeded 400 parts per million for the first time in 55 years of measurement - and probably more than 3 million years of Earth history. Despite current concerns in relation to economic conditions in the European Union and geo-political tragedies in the Middle East, climate change remains one of the most significant challenges currently being grappled with by the international community (and its constituent parts all the way down to the individual). The scale of the crisis is succinctly captured by Ban Ki Moon’s evocation of the grundnorm of the United Nations, there solution of international conflict, in an address to the General Assembly in 2007:
[T]he danger posed by war to all of humanity - and to our planet - is at least matched by the climate crisis and global warming.

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
