N. Abedinpour Regards on Tuvalu — Thoughts
on State responsibility and climate changes.
Abstract:
In the Kyoto Protocol (1995) to the UN Framework
Convention on Climate Change (1992) State-parties
agreed on targets for the emission of greenhouse
gasses (GHGs). This article involves analysis of hypothetical
possibilities of lawsuit in ICJ for Tuvalu,
which is a tiny island state in the Pacifi c Ocean that
has ratifi ed the Kyoto Protocol, and that is a UN
Member State. Tuvalu, which is expected to sink by
2050 is an obvious example of the real dangers of
the GHGs.
