UCS: Case Studies in Climate Litigation
Scientists play critical roles advising legal teams as technical experts in climate lawsuits to hold governments and corporations accountable for their contributions to climate change.
The Union of Concerned Scientists invites you to join the Science Hub for Climate Litigation for a timely conversation on how scientists can engage in climate litigation.
Learn how scientific experts can conduct robust and timely litigation-relevant scientific research, help inform courts via amicus briefs and legal interventions, and consult on cases or appear in court as expert witnesses.
