This course examines the complex relationship between the Earth¿s rapidly changing environment and the protection of human rights (civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights). Environmental conditions are being exacerbated by climate change in ways that are adversely affecting individuals and communities struggling with highly stressed water, land, air, and marine resources. Legal and policy options to confront these environmental challenges (and the related challenge of widespread poverty) will be examined regarding their implications for human rights and International Law.
