Ontario's top court has released a decision in a historic, landmark youth-led climate case, ruling in favor of the young plaintiffs. The case, which challenges Ontario's climate targets, argues that the targets violate young people's rights. This decision could have significant implications for similar climate lawsuits globally. The court has ordered a new hearing for the case, marking a significant victory for climate law in Canada.
