💨 Abstract

Oceana UK, a marine conservation group, has challenged the UK government over more than two dozen oil and gas exploration licences, arguing that the impact on climate change and marine life was not considered. The government opposes the case, stating that the licences only allow early exploration and further assessments will be conducted before production. The case is part of a growing trend of environmental campaigners using law to combat climate change, with mixed success.
