Prediction: Nordics: Climate change litigation will heat up in Sweden

LinkedIn Email Share this prediction
Prediction

Through the youth-led group Aurora, hundreds of youths have filed a lawsuit against the Swedish government alleging that they are not treating the climate crisis as a crisis. At present, procedural issues as to whether the case is admissible or not have been elevated to the Supreme Court. The Aurora case is one of the first climate change cases in Sweden. While we cannot predict the outcome of the case, it is clear we will see more of these type of cases in the future in Sweden and more broadly.
