 The ICJ’s advisory opinion insists heavily on the duty to cooperate to protect the climate system. I show that this duty of cooperation is grounded in an acknowledgment of differentiated obligations among states but falls short in specifying how those differentiated obligations should be quantified, whether in relation to mitigation or to adaptation finance. I argue this reflects a general reluctance to engage with the distributive issues central to climate justice claims which, in turn, serves to preserve the ICJ legitimacy.  CC BY-SA 4.0 Petel, Matthias Advisory Opinion Climate Crisis ICJ 342 https://verfassungsblog.de/differentiation-of-responsibilities-in-the-icjs-climate-advisory-opinion/ Verfassungsblog 2366-7044 Max Steinbeis Verfassungsblog gGmbH 10.17176/20251203-172053-0 251103 10.17176/20251203-172053-0 Converted from MARCXML to MODS version 3.7 using MARC21slim2MODS3-7.xsl (Revision 1.140 20200717)
