Regenerative Energie
Over the last three decades, climate change law has been transformed into a complex system of multi-level governance where global decisions are supposed to result in local action and to determine local behaviour. In practice, however, the impact of international law is rather limited.
While the international community managed to conclude three legally binding instruments, the present treaty law does not enshrine binding obligations to reduce emissions. Therefore, environmental activists increasingly seek recourse to abstract principles of customary international law. All these debates focus on establishing binding quantitative targets for states and neglect the instrumental dimension of their implementation. The European Commission in its 'fit for 55â€-package, on the other hands, seems to recognize that it is not enough simply to fix targets and to leave implementation to the Member States. All in all, decision makers on the state level need international coordination and guidance which is more specific and predictable.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
