A very good morning from the @ECHR_CEDH in Strasbourg, where I’ll be live-tweeting today’s hearing announcing the ECtHR’s first three climate rulings. Excitement is running high, @GretaThunberg is here and the hearing is going to be packed. Stay tuned! 1/x
The hearing doesn’t start until 10:30 CEST, and it’ll give a brief indication of the findings, with the rulings and their summaries to be published afterwards. In the meantime, I have an @KlimaSeniorin button and a seat in the Press room across from the inimitable @MollyQuell
