Plant-for-the-Planet Statement on the ICJ Advisory Opinion Plant-for-the-Planet welcomes the ICJ advisory opinion on stronger climate action and calls on states to heed the judges' appeal.

We're proud and lucky that @juleschnakenberg.bsky.social is on our team! 🙌
#ICJ #climatechange

We call on governments worldwide:
Take this opinion seriously. Step up your climate efforts. Align your actions with the 1.5°C goal. Now.
📢 Youth voices matter.
This is what collective action can achieve.
Let’s keep going. For climate justice. For the future. 🌱

“We’re proud that our colleague @juleschnakenberg.bsky.social stood in The Hague as part of @wy4cj.bsky.social,” says Jens Waltermann, Chair of Plant-for-the-Planet.
Their youth-led initiative helped bring the case forward – together with PISFCC. 💪🌏
5/6

This is a major step for climate justice – even if the opinion isn’t legally binding.
It will influence ongoing climate litigation. The message is clear: Inaction has consequences.
4/6

The Court made clear:
🌿 A healthy environment is a human right
🌡️ The climate crisis is an existential threat
🌐 States must act together – across borders – to protect future generations
3/6

The Court ruled that states are bound by their climate commitments – including the Kyoto Protocol, UNFCCC, and Paris Agreement.
Failing to meet the 1.5°C target is a breach of international obligations.
2/6

The International Court of Justice (#ICJ) just made history.
For the first time, it declared: States must act on #climatechange.
A livable planet is not optional – it’s a human right.
🧵 1/6

🌎⚖️ Historic day for #ClimateJustice

The International Court of Justice affirmed in its Advisory Opinion that #ClimateAction isn’t a policy choice: it’s a legal duty under international law.
States must cut emissions, adapt, cooperate, uphold #HumanRights, & remedy harm.

No more excuses.

🧵⬇️

Watch live TODAY at 3pm CEST the Int. Court of Justice's advisory opinion on Obligations of States in respect of Climate Change.

Why is this year's SB, the SB62, so important?

How do the SBs relate to what happens at COP?

There are different SBs that work in different areas, the #SBSTA and the #SBI

SB = Subsidiary bodies
Here's where the heavy lifting happens ahead of COP.

#COP is important, but it's nothing without its little sister. #SB62

We're at #SB62 in Bonn this June. But what even is this? And how does it relate to #COP later this year? A thread (1)
