The government 'lost'.
- tremon 7y agoThe Urgenda case was slightly different though. In NL, they argued their case on behalf of the next generation (broadly speaking), and the outcome of the trial was a 25% emissions reduction target for the government to meet. The German case seems easier (on the surface), because it is about the government failing to meet the targets it has set itself.
