Episode Synopsis

Part 1 of this episode series focused on the unanimous ruling delivered by the large bench of ICJ judges.  This Part 2 focuses on the supplemental opinions that almost all the judges also added to the record, in most cases wishing the court had been willing to go further than it did in specific areas of the ruling.  Even though the unanimous ruling itself is only advisory, these supplemental opinions are likely to provide climate advocates with ideas of where to try and take climate change litigation in the future.
