Abstract

Podnebne spremembe predstavljajo veliko grožnjo našemu planetu in povečujejo že obstoječe socialne in ekonomske neenakosti na globalni in lokalni ravni. Ne glede na navedeno države ne sprejemajo ustreznih ukrepov za blaženje in prilagajanje na podnebne spremembe skladno z znanstvenimi dognanji in mednarodnopravnimi obveznostmi. Podnebne tožbe so tožbe pred nacionalnimi sodišči, regionalnimi sodišči za človekove pravice in mednarodnimi sodišči in drugimi telesi, ki jih posamezniki in civilna družba uporabljajo za spodbujanje držav k spoštovanju zavez iz Okvirne konvencije o spremembi podnebja, Kjotskega protokola k Okvirni konvenciji o spremembi podnebja ter Pariškega podnebnega sporazuma. Pravna podlaga podnebnih tožb je najpogosteje nacionalna zakonodaja, pravo človekovih pravic in mednarodno pravo podnebnih sprememb. Namen magistrskega dela je analiza podnebnih tožb, z namenom ugotoviti, ali lahko podnebne tožbe služijo kot primerno pravno sredstvo s katerim posamezniki in civilna družba dosežejo, da države uresničujejo mednarodnopravne obveznosti. Prvi del je namenjen pregledu pravne ureditve podnebnih sprememb. V drugem delu so predstavljeni mehanizmi OZN za uresničevanje človekovih pravic, sodišča in druga telesa na regionalni ravni, na katere lahko posamezniki ali skupine posameznikov naslovijo podnebne tožbe. Drugi del vsebuje tudi pregled ključnih podnebnih tožb proti državam pred nacionalnimi sodišči, sodišči na regionalni ravni in pred mehanizmi OZN za uresničevanje človekovih pravic.

Secondary title: Climate change litigation against governments on the basis of international law violation
Secondary abstract: Climate change presents a big threat to our planet and is enhancing the pre-existing social and economic inequalities on global and local level, while states fail to take appropriate measures to mitigate and adapt to climate change in line with scientific knowledge and their respective obligations stemming from international law. Climate change litigation are lawsuits brought before domestic courts, regional human rights courts, international courts, and other international bodies. Individuals and civil society use climate change litigation to encourage governments to comply with United Nations Framework on Climate Change, Kyoto Protocol, and Paris Agreement commitments. National law, human rights law, and international climate change law are most often used as a legal basis for climate change litigation. The purpose of this master's thesis is analysis whether climate change litigation can serve as an appropriate remedy by which individuals and civil society can achieve that the defendant state implements their international obligations. The first part is aimed at reviewing the climate change legal framework, while the second part studies UN Human Rights Mechanisms and regional human rights courts where climate change cases are filed and includes the study of key climate change cases that have been brought against governments in national courts, human rights courts, and in UN Human Rights Mechanisms.
