Today, the Hague Court of Appeals upheld<\/a> a lower court ruling that the Dutch government is obligated to limit its greenhouse gas emissions to 25% below 1990 levels by the end of 2020. The case, Urgenda Foundation v. The State of Netherlands<\/em><\/a>, decided<\/a> by the district court in 2015, marked a watershed moment for climate change litigation — it was the first court decision in the world to order a state to limit its greenhouse gas emissions for reasons other than a statutory mandate. Brought by a Dutch environmental group, the Urgenda Foundation, and 886 Dutch citizens, the suit argued that the government\u2019s inadequate action on climate change violated a duty of care to protect plaintiffs\u2019 rights under European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and the Dutch constitution. After the district court decision, which found that the Dutch constitution reflects a duty of care to address climate change, the Dutch government appealed on 29 grounds. Urgenda also submitted a cross-appeal, contesting the court\u2019s decision that Urgenda cannot directly invoke plaintiffs\u2019 rights under the ECHR in these proceedings.<\/p>\n

The Hague Court of Appeals concluded that \u201cthe State is acting unlawfully (because\u00a0in contravention of the duty of care under Articles 2 and 8 ECHR) by failing to pursue a more ambitious reduction as of end-2020, and that the State should reduce emissions by at least 25% by end-2020.\u201d Broadening the victory for Urgenda, the court recognized Urgenda\u2019s capacity to directly bring claims under the ECHR to uphold plaintiffs\u2019 rights to life (under ECHR Article 2) and rights to private life, family life, home, and correspondence (under ECHR Article 8). Further, the court determined that climate change poses \u201ca real threat\u201d to these rights, triggering a government obligation to act.<\/p>\n

The court rejected the government\u2019s long list of appeals. Separation of powers-type arguments failed, as the court rejected the government\u2019s arguments that the lower court\u2019s decision constituted \u201can order to create legislation\u201d or violation of trias politica<\/em>, and affirmed its obligation to apply provisions with direct effect of treaties to which the Netherlands is party, including Articles 2 and 8 of the ECHR. The court also found nothing in Article 193 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union that prohibits a member states from taking more ambitious climate action than the E.U. as a whole; that adaptation measures cannot compensate for the government\u2019s duty of care to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions; and that the global nature of the climate change problem does not excuse the Dutch government from action.<\/p>\n

Since the district court\u2019s 2015 decision, climate litigation has been filed against governments around the world including in Norway<\/a>,\u00a0Pakistan<\/a>, Colombia<\/a>, Switzerland<\/a>, and before the E.U.<\/a> While international law cannot bind the Dutch court\u2019s logic on other judicial systems, today\u2019s decision may influence other courts around the world\u2014particularly in regard to the court\u2019s interpretation of the ECHR. However, this is not necessarily the last stop for the Urgenda decision. The Dutch government has the option to appeal the case to the Supreme Court, and has not stated whether it will or will not do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
