Pravo je nujno za spopadanje s trojno planetarno krizo, ki se nanaša na tri medsebojno povezane izzive, ki ogrožajo življenje na našem planetu: podnebne spremembe, onesnaževanje okolja in izgubo biotske raznovrstnosti. Mednarodna skupnost ne izkazuje ustreznega napredka pri izpolnjevanju sprejetih mednarodnih zavez. Nujno je, da se pravne zaveze v praksi tudi uresničujejo in pravne obveznosti ustrezno razlagajo. Trenutno teče več mednarodnih procesov, ki bodo lahko ponudili nekatere odgovore glede zahtevanega ravnanja v prihodnje. Države bi morale v potrebne aktivnosti primerno vključevati tudi pravno stroko. Slednja pa mora biti ustrezno izobražena in usposobljena. Pomemben je celosten pristop, ki je sposoben tudi učinkovitega sodelovanja med različnimi strokami.

Law is essential to tackle the triple planetary crisis, which refers to three interlinked challenges that are endangering life on our planet: climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss. The international community is not making adequate progress in meeting the international commitments it has made. It is imperative that legal commitments are being implemented in practice and legal obligations are properly interpreted. Several international processes are currently underway which may provide some answers as to the future conduct required. States should involve the legal profession in the necessary activities. The latter must be properly educated and trained. A holistic approach is important, which is also capable of effective cooperation between the different disciplines.
