Climate litigation is an increasingly widespread form of climate activism - filing lawsuits against oil companies, governments, energy suppliers and more to seek damages for the effects of man-made climate change. But until 2015 almost all of these lawsuits have been unsuccessful, for reasons that my friend Devin, @LegalEagle, explains. However, a 2015 case may pave the way for more successes in the courtroom.

This video is about the lawsuits that have been filed to date about climate change, suing climate change, lawsuits against oil companies, lawsuits against governments to stop climate change, and the landmark ruling in the Netherlands in 2015, Urgenda Foundation v. State of the Netherlands, that might have changed the game for climate litigation. Legal Eagle Devin Stone helps me decode why so many lawsuits to date have failed and how the law needs to change in English systems to make more climate lawsuits possible.
