Law and Climate
The role of the justice system in the defense of the compliance and the advance of the legislation involving the climate agenda in Brazil is being increasingly strengthened.
The Climate and Law portfolio seeks to enable a more assertive operation of the various bodies that are responsible for legal issues that involve the debate on climate change. In this regard, it operates on four work fronts:
Judicial decisions that restore environmental governance and reduce deforestation, in accordance with the commitments made by Brazil in the Paris Agreement
Acceleration of the energy transition, notably in the energy and transport sectors, through litigation
Reforms of tax collections, public investments and legal and financial frameworks through judicial decisions
Activation of the legal community in the search of decisions in high-impact cases
