STRASBOURG, France: Europe's top rights court is Tuesday to decide in three separate cases if states are doing enough in the face of global warming in rulings that could force them to do more.The European Court of Human Rights, part of the 46-member Council of Europe, is from 10:30 a.m. to rule on whether governments' climate change policies are violating the European Convention on Human Rights.
Even if the convention does not contain any explicit provision relating to the environment, the court has already ruled based on Article 8 of the convention — the right to respect for private and family life — an obligation of states to maintain a 'healthy environment,' in cases relating to waste management or industrial activities.
