dc.description.abstractA presentation to the After Paris: Politics, Climate Change & Labour meetings, Toronto, 2015, by Roger Cox, the lead lawyer in the ground-breaking Urgenda case in the Netherlands. For the first time ever, he argued for the responsibility of the state to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as a duty of the state. The government of Netherlands appealed the decision but was eventually forced to amend its GHG reduction targets as a result of the Court’s decision in Urgenda. The slides from Roger Cox’s presentation are available at https://yorkspace.library.yorku.ca/xmlui/handle/10315/39288.en
