Desafíos jurídicos en la lucha contra el cambio climático : perspectivas internacionales y nacionales para la participación efectiva del Estado y el sector privado

Abstract

Climate change is one of the main challenges we face as a society. For mitigating its effects, businesses play an equally fundamental role as countries; however, national and international regulation on this issue is insufficient in relation to the needs. Currently, the legal framework on this matter lacks the necessary specificity to ensure the accountability of the private sector in combating the effects of climate change. This situation allows many companies to evade their environmental responsibilities, compromising global efforts. This document aims to identify legal deficiencies and propose possible solutions to strengthen the legal framework regarding the role of the private sector in mitigating the effects of climate change.
