An Australian court once ruled that the federal government has a duty of care to young people, to protect them from harm the climate crisis will inflict during their lifetimes.
That decision was overturned on appeal, but today there’s an inquiry looking into how that responsibility could be enshrined in law via the parliament.
It’ss been a long journey for the young woman who first brought that case against the federal Environment minister – something she did while still in high school.
