Carbon buildup in our atmosphere occurs over generations and so requires new legal principles that recognize this intergenerational connection among human socieities. We must develop new legal principles to articulate the rights and corresponding duties that underpin intergenerational equity, and develop new ways to use law to translate ethical norms into practice."--P. 14. 0aGlobal warmingxLaw and legislation.2Local 0aClimatic changesxMoral and ethical aspects.2Local 0aEnvironmental ethics2Local 0aHuman rights2Local 0aEnvironmental justice2Local 0aIntergenerational relations2Local 0aClimatic changesxGovernment policy.2Local1 aBach, Tracy.2Local2 aClimate Legacy Initiative.2Local uhttp://www.vermontlaw.edu/Documents/012108-cliPolicyPaper.pdfzAccess the online (pdf) version
