LISBON, [http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/public/sitesearch.do?querystring=Portugal Portugal] (AP) - The European Court of Human Rights is requiring a prompt response from 33 countries to an ambitious climate change case brought by six young Portuguese, [https://kynghidongduong.vn/blog/le-hoi-hoa-tam-giac-mach-ha-giang-va-nhung-diem-check-in-voi-hoa-dep-nhat.html hoa tam giác mạch] a move that activists said gave heart to their cause. The court on Monday ordered the European countries to respond to the complaint and granted it priority status because of the "importance and urgency of the issues raised." The two young Portuguese adults and four children filed their claim last September at the Strasbourg, France-based court. They want the court to hold the countries accountable for their allegedly inadequate efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions. The group is supported by the Global Legal Action Network, [https://kynghidongduong.vn/blog/le-hoi-hoa-tam-giac-mach-ha-giang-va-nhung-diem-check-in-voi-hoa-dep-nhat.html kynghidongduong.vn] a international nonprofit organization that challenges human rights violations, and a team of five London lawyers. The countries named in the complaint include the 27 member nations of the European Union plus the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, Russia, Turkey and Ukraine. The court´s decision to demand a swift response from the defendant countries is "highly significant," said Global Legal Action Network director Gearóid Ó Cuinn, because "only a tiny minority of cases" merit such treatment. The court will attempt to broker an amicable agreement in the case before it proceeds to litigation. If the activists win their case, the countries would be legally bound to cut emissions in line with the requirements of the 2015 Paris climate accord. They would also have to address their role in overseas emissions, including by their multinational companies. ___ Follow all AP coverage of climate change issues at website
