Reviews
'This book serves as an engaging resource for those working in the climate justice field by offering linkages between climate change, natural resources and animal law, as well as across human rights. It focuses on subjects of climate impacts which are often overlooked and understudied, and provides an initial roadmap indicating how the law can progress in order to provide protection for the voiceless. It also offers detailed and careful study of very recent litigation in the climate justice arena, focusing on the plaintiffs and their stories, and so should be considered essential reading for those working in the climate litigation and climate justice areas.' Lisa Benjamin, Transnational Environmental Law '... Abate offers valuable insights ...' R. M. Ramazani, Choice
