Can International Law Adapt to Climate Change?. Issue 3 (2nd July 2020) - Polizzi, Norma A.
Abstract: While this article is an overview of existing international environmental law, its main focus is to explore whether we can develop a legal system that has the ability to adapt to climate change in all its complexities. There is no easy solution to this global issue but the scholarship cited here favors the one most difficult to implement, concluding that an adaptation approach provides the flexibility needed to deal with the ever-changing world of climate change. The question remains whether we are willing to make the sacrifices necessary to adapt.
