The International Court of Justice is hearing the largest climate case ever, as over 100 countries urge accountability from major polluters for climate harm they caused.
Pacific island nations, led by Vanuatu, assert they are victims of climate change, emphasizing that their negligible emissions mean they shouldn't bear the crisis's brunt.
Vanuatu’s attorney general articulated a vital point: ‘We know what the cause of climate change is: a conduct of specific States...’ underscoring accountability.
The historic hearings signify a culmination of efforts by small island states to seek justice from larger polluting nations whose emissions threaten their existence.
