The reality of climate change and its adverse implication on the human and environmental rights of the Inuit is no longer in doubt. The observed impacts of climate change in the Arctic region confirm that the change in climate has violated the fundamental human rights of the Inuit inhabiting the Arctic region, the integrity of the Arctic ecosystem, and also the environmental “right to be cold”. Emissions of greenhouse gases primarily due to human activities have contributed monumentally to climate change, and these emissions have, over the years, been encouraged by the actions or inactions of States. The principle that “where there is a right, there is a remedy” prompts the search for legal remedies within the international human rights system to address the impacts of climate change on the Inuit and the Arctic region. This thesis addresses the legal and regulatory framework that can be adopted to address the impact of climate change on Northern Indigenous peoples. The question of whether current global ... |
