The case ruled that the current target of a14-17% below 1990 levels by 2020 were insufficient and ordered that this be increased to at least a 25% reduction on 1990 levels. While the delivery of a similar case under Australian law faces a number of technical and legal obstacles, it is no doubt a clear message to governments on their responsibility for delivering effective climate change policy.<\/p>\n<p>An interesting finding of the case was that there was no plausible economic argument that the new targets were outside the reach of the Netherlands Government.<\/p>\n<p>As a precedent for the power of citizenship in these debates, the events in the Netherlands demonstrate the possibility of both domestic and international actions being bought to the Australia government by persons vulnerable to climate risk.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/dutch.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3316\" src=\"http:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/dutch-300x182.jpg\" alt=\"dutch\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/dutch-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/dutch-500x304.jpg 500w, https:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/dutch-250x152.jpg 250w, https:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/dutch-400x243.jpg 400w, https:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/cl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/dutch.jpg 668w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week the Hague Court ruled in favour of not-for-profit organisation Urgenda, ordering the Netherlands Government to take greater action to reduce the country\u2019s greenhouse &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ub_ctt_via":""},"categories":[518,1],"tags":[],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"admins","author_link":"https:\/\/edgeenvironment.com\/cl\/author\/admins\/"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.8 -
