You will examine the role of climate change action in driving the transition to a sustainable (green) economy, climate science, policy, and law.
You will also study:
- the international law of the Paris Agreement
- climate litigation
- carbon budgeting
- the promotion of technology on carbon storage and removal
- green business models
