In a landmark ruling on 29 August 2024, the Constitutional Court of Korea declared parts of the Carbon Neutrality Act unconstitutional, marking a significant development in global climate litigation. The Court ruled that the Act failed to set greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets beyond 2030, effectively passing the burden of climate action to future generations. This decision is groundbreaking as it is the first time climate change has been recognised as a constitutional rights issue in the Republic of Korea, and the rights of future generations have been explicitly acknowledged.
