In light of the Dutch Supreme Court decision in State of the Netherlands v Urgenda Foundation in 2019 and the opening of the floodgates for climate-change-related litigation claims, this article introduces the concept of climate adaptation and how there have been legislator changes on a global scale to further the aims of the Paris Agreement, explores the recent trend of increasing climate change litigation in the World, analyses the distinction between self-executing and non-self-executing climate change measures and examines the ways in which certain countries have been able to avoid litigation liability altogether. The article then ends by providing two alternative scenarios which consider the potential failures by countries in integrating climate change adaptation measures and the challenges to any adaptation processes adopted by governments.
