European court rules human rights violated by climate inaction in landmark case | BBC News

A group of older Swiss women have won the first ever climate case victory in the European Court of Human Rights.
The women, mostly in their 70s, said that their age and gender made them particularly vulnerable to the effects of heatwaves linked to climate change.
The court said Switzerland's efforts to meet its emission reduction targets had been woefully inadequate.
It is the first time the powerful court has ruled on global warming.

There are over 5 million excess deaths per annum globally due to abnormal temperatures from the 2000-2019 study led Prof. Guo of Monash University. It found that over 90% of excess deaths were caused by excess COLD rather than excess heat. This applied globally including in the hottest continent, Africa. So, in a world with increasingly mild temperatures, there will be less excess death. Warming is good not bad.

[@jolenajade]

What a load of rubbish, according to the Canadian climate institute . Studies put the global mortality rate associated with temperature extremes at five million deaths per year. In 2023 extreme heat hit large parts of North America, Europe and China breaking temperature records around the globe. It was the hottest year in recorded human history. One cannot simply say, hot good, cold bad. The effects of climate change will mean more extreme weather.

[@OldScientist]

90% of these deaths are due to cold not heat. Also the climate is becoming less extreme. The marginal warming also appears to be largely due an increase in minima temperatures rather than maxima temperatures, i.e. warmer nights and winters. So essentially the climate is getting milder rather than hotter.

[@876xboss_albanerx64]

@@OldScientist Globing warming is good because less heating-deprived people will freeze to death? Perhaps, if that was the only thing we had to worry about. Only taking human casualties caused by hypothermia into consideration is quite blind, since the symptoms of global warming (desertification, flooding, droughts, lack of fresh water, etc.) will cause massive unrest in affected areas and migration to more hospitable and stable environments/countries. Not to mention the massive economic and developmental implications for said countries.

[@OldScientist]

@boss_albaner The UN's IPCC AR6 report, chapter 11 'Weather and Climate Extreme Events in a Changing Climate' summarises the fact that severe weather events cannot be detected as increasing, nor attributed to human caused climate change: Increased Flooding: not detected, no attribution. Increased Meteorological Drought: not detected, no attribution. Increased Hydrological Drought: not detected, no attribution. Increased Tropical Cyclones: not detected, no attribution. Increased Winter Storms: not detected, no attribution. Increased Thunderstorms: not detected, no attribution. Increased Hail: not detected, no attribution. increased lightning: not detected, no attribution. Increased Extreme Winds: not detected, no attribution. There is no climate crisis. The UN's IPCC AR6 report, chapter 11 'Weather and Climate Extreme Events in a Changing Climate' summarises the fact that certain severe weather events cannot be detected as increasing, nor attributed to human caused climate change: Pages 1761 - 1765, Table 11.A.2 Synthesis table summarising assessments Heavy Precipitation: 24 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend (12 medium confidence), 43 out 45 low confidence in human attribution. Agricultural Drought: 31 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend (14 medium confidence. No high confidence assessment). 42 out 45 low confidence in human attribution (3 medium, no high confidence). Ecological Drought as above. Hydrological Drought: 38 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend. 43 out 45 low confidence in human attribution (2 medium confidence, no high confidence). So the IPCC are saying we didn't cause droughts and we didn't make it rain. How surprising! There is no objective observational evidence that we are living in a global climate crisis. The UN's IPCC AR6, chapter 12 "Climate Change Information for Regional Impact and for Risk Assessment", section 12.5.2, table 12.12 confirms there is a lack of evidence or no signal that the following have changed: Air Pollution Weather (temperature inversions), Aridity, Avalanche (snow), Average precipitation, Average Wind Speed, Coastal Flood, Agricultural drought, Hydrological drought, Erosion of Coastlines, Fire Weather (hot and windy), Flooding From Heavy Rain (pluvial floods), Frost, Hail, Heavy Rain, Heavy Snowfall and Ice Storms, Landslides, Marine Heatwaves, Ocean Acidity, Radiation at the Earth’s Surface, River/Lake Floods, Sand and Dust Storms, Sea Level, Severe Wind Storms, Snow, Glacier, and Ice Sheets, Tropical Cyclones. How about some quotes from the UN's IPCC AR6? "There is low confidence in the emergence of heavy precipitation and pluvial and river flood frequency in observations, despite trends that have been found in a few regions." "There is low confidence in the emergence of drought frequency in observations, for any type of drought, in all regions." "Observed mean surface wind speed trends are present in many areas, but the emergence of these trends from the interannual natural variability and their attribution to human-induced climate change remains of low confidence due to various factors such as changes in the type and exposure of recording instruments, and their relation to climate change is not established. . . The same limitation also holds for wind extremes (severe storms, tropical cyclones, sand and dust storms)." There is no objective observational evidence that we are living through a global climate crisis. None.

@boss_albaner Deserts have shrunk considerably since the 1980's. The Sahara shrank by 12,000km² per year 1984-2015(Liu & Xue, 2020). The Earth has greened by 15% or more in a human lifetime. "The greening of the planet over the last two decades represents an increase in leaf area on plants and trees equivalent to the area covered by all the Amazon rainforests. There are now more than two million square miles of extra green leaf area per year"(NASA, 2019). Observations of Earth’s vegetative cover since the year 2000 by NASA’s Terra satellite show a 10% increase in vegetation in the first 20 years of the century. Global tree canopy cover increased by 2.24 million square kilometers (865,000 square miles) between 1982 and 2016 (Nature, 2018). As well as human intervention, the reasons for this include forests expanding polewards aided by additional CO2 and a slight rise in temperature. Increased CO2 causes this in two ways: it has a direct fertilising effect (the CFE), and it increases drought tolerance by reducing stomata. This greening of the Earth due to CO2 is now "an indisputable fact" (Chen et al, 2024). In fact, 55.15% of those areas greening have been doing so at an accelerated rate since 2001.

LOL. I'm not sure what is "landmark" at all about this. This doesn't require governments in Europe to do anything. The ECHR is not empowered to overrule national decisions or annul national laws. The Court is not responsible for the execution of its judgments. European voters will continue to make climate policies in their own jurisdictions ignoring this activist court.

If any one should get a pay out, it should be the farmers! They lose hundreds of thousands due to bad weather, plus farming has the highest suicide rate. Just let that sink in for a minute!

What types of pollutions are targeted?? I have looked at many videos about the news of the ruling but it is not really explained. Is it car pollution?

[@davidadiwego4608]

FYI CO2 is not a pollutant

[@growingislife2148]

@@davidadiwego4608 Well there are two carbon cycles, one is long and the other is short. Burning fossil fuels takes carbon that has been stored in the ground in the long carbon cycle and brings it in the short carbon cycle. It cannot go back in the long carbon cycle easily.

It's about all types of pollution that contribute to climate change, including from cars, aircraft, factories and industrial plants, power stations, etc.

[@davidadiwego4608]

@@growingislife2148 CO2 itself is not a pollutant.

@@davidadiwego4608 It traps heat more easily. Anyway CO2 isn't the only issue with human activity causing problems on the planet. It's more of a ressources issue.

Funny they don't sue or protest in China, India,Russia Nigeria or USA which are more responsible. EU is doing its best to tackle climate change but is also the easiest to protest and do all those shows

So the old "Karens" are having hot flashes. Is it Sweden that has a moderate climate? If they are getting too hot in the summer put in air conditioning. Go for a dip in the frigid ocean maybe. Next week they will want to sue over winters being too cold.

[@davecooper3238]

Sweden is on the same latitude as Canada. Stretching up to near the Arctic Circle. It can become quite chilly up there. Swedes are not the type to moan for no reason. They a generally people looking for solution rather than problems.

According to recent Scientific Study, BREATHING is responsible for climate change, so therefore those people who are really concerned about climate change must follow the science and must heed the advice of the climate researchers for the sake of saving climate and planet earth.

Since 1900 the global temperature has increased by 1.3°C. In that time humanity has flourished. Life expectancy has more than doubled from 32 to 73 years. Literacy has quadrupled from 21% to 86%. Humans are seven times more productive ($2,241 to $15,212 GDP per capita, per annum). People are better fed, having ⅓ more calories every day (2,192kcal to 2,928kcal). Global extreme poverty rates have tumbled from 70% to less than 10% (
