Climate law

Climate plays an inevitable role in the development of society and has a major impact on markets, businesses, products, consumers and, not least, society as a whole. As a legal discipline, climate law therefore includes all regulatory measures, including climate legislation at global, EU and national level, which aim to meet the politically set climate objectives. Poul Schmith/Kammeradvokaten has extensive insight and experience in climate law as a legal discipline and advises on all aspects of climate law, including climate legislation.
