The desire for more climate protection is growing, as are the considerations for legal implementation (especially against legislative inaction). In Austria, the most prominent call for increased climate protection was probably the Climate Referendum of 2020 and its demand for a fundamental right to climate protection. This article examines the possibilities and challenges arising from the implementation of such a right.
