The legal landscape is changing to address the climate crisis and corporate irresponsibility more generally. To date, litigation challenges have been focused on seeking redress and addressing iniquity caused by various large players including governments and large corporates, but that is changing.
Companies that service these clients, are now caught by new and evolving requirements in the legal landscape which they too need to navigate and comply with.
