Turning The Tide charts the extraordinary legal movement reshaping the global response to climate change. Bringing together climate lawyers, NGOs, and campaigners, and edited by leading climate litigator Sophie Marjanac, this powerful, illustrated volume documents the rise of climate litigation as one of the defining forces shaping environmental accountability in the 21st century.
From the groundbreaking Urgenda case in the Netherlands to Indigenous land rights victories, youth-led lawsuits, challenges to fossil fuel expansion, and landmark cases holding governments and corporations to account, Turning The Tide reveals the David and Goliath struggle unfolding in courtrooms around the world. Through stories of courage, resistance, and legal ingenuity, it shows how ordinary people are confronting extraordinary odds in the fight for a more just and sustainable future.
Exploring 40 landmark cases from the past decade, and brought to life with photography, maps, timelines, and expert analysis, Turning The Tide is both an essential record of a rapidly evolving movement and an inspiring call to action.
