Your Research Can Help Inform Climate Litigation
SHARE

Climate litigation is a rapidly expanding field that relies heavily on interdisciplinary research to hold governments, corporations, and other actors accountable for their contributions to the climate crisis. Scientists play a crucial role in providing the evidence needed to inform climate action and drive meaningful change in the legal landscape.

A recent report titled “Research Areas for Climate Litigation” highlights key research areas where scientists can make significant contributions to climate litigation. The report emphasizes the need for rigorous research and expert engagement in legal processes to address the complexities of the climate crisis.

Three priority research areas identified in the report include attribution science, climate change and human health, and economic modeling. Attribution science helps connect climate impacts to greenhouse gas emissions and identify responsible actors, while research on climate change and human health quantifies the health impacts of climate change. Economic modeling is essential for calculating the financial costs of climate change and informing legal decisions on appropriate remedies.

In addition to these priority research areas, the report identifies five strategic research areas that offer critical opportunities for scientists to contribute to climate litigation. These areas include legal and financial accountability, counteracting disinformation and greenwashing campaigns, developing compliance metrics for climate goals, and expanding research on environmental and social impacts of climate change.

The report underscores the importance of bridging the gap between science and the law to advance climate justice. Scientists working in these areas are encouraged to engage with legal practitioners, policymakers, and organizations like the Union of Concerned Scientists to explore how their expertise can support climate litigation efforts. By shaping legal strategies, providing critical evidence, and ensuring climate cases are grounded in sound research, scientists can drive meaningful change and contribute to the fight against the climate crisis.
