Overview
Free trade agreements have historically included clauses that allow corporations and governments to bring trade cases challenging renewable energy and other climate action policies. These kinds of cases are on the rise, challenging conservation action everywhere. Not only do such cases directly threaten existing climate policies, but the threat of entering into costly and lengthy trade litigation can deter governments from enacting the new climate policies that the climate crisis demands.
