Abstract
There is no denying that many human rights are at risk due to climate change. Unfortunately, because environmental rights do not exist, those who are already suffering as a result of climate change will have to make do with what they have. In contrast, these solutions don't always work or even come close to adequately compensating the victims; furthermore, they seem to be especially problematic when thought of in relation to climate change. This research looks at the potential consequences of creating distinct substantive rights to a healthy environment via the lens of climate change. The consequences of this perspective are the major focus of our investigation. According to the research, a paradigm shift might occur as a consequence of climate change's catastrophic impacts, allowing for a reassessment of human rights laws. Integrating core principles of environmental law into the bedrock of human rights is especially necessary in this regard.
