DESCRIPTION:From Greta Thunberg to elderly Australian nuns\, i
 ncreasing numbers of people are taking legal actio
 n to demand governments and companies do more to t
 ackle climate change. Now\, with the development o
 f attribution science – which allows individual we
 ather events to be attributed to climate change – 
 a new frontier of climate litigation is opening\, 
 and the front line features a Peruvian farmer suin
 g a German energy company for flood damages.\n\nIn
  this panel\, we’re asking: what does this rise in
  litigious climate action mean for society as we r
 ace to meet climate targets? And\, with developmen
 t of attribution science\, how does the future loo
 k?\n\nPanel participants include:\n\n- Prof. Joana
  Setzer: Assistant Professorial Research Fellow at
  the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change
  and the Environment\, at the London School of Eco
 nomics and Political Science\n\n- Rupert Stuart-Sm
