The paper addresses the critical issue of climate change, highlighting its significance as a key topic of the 21st century. It references the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's 2007 Fourth Assessment Report, which documents significant climate alterations from 1906 to 2005, including global warming, increased precipitation, and rising sea levels. The rising concentration of carbon dioxide, primarily from fossil fuel consumption, is identified as a major contributor to these changes, emphasizing the urgent need for public law responses to this global challenge.
