Do states have to pay for climate damage? International Court of Justice published reports

White beach, turquoise blue water, juicy-green palm trees: The island state of Vanuatu in the South Pacific looks like a true paradise at first glance. But appearance is deceptive. The country is one of those regions of the world that are most endangered by disasters. Not only earthquakes and tropical storms provide threats, but also the topography: a large part of the 83 islands is just just above sea level. Due to the climate crisis caused by the water, these areas are acutely endangered.
