Opis: Of all the prominent environmental issues in recent decades, global climate change is the most serious and has been widely regarded as the most pressing global environmental problem of the current age. Ongoing carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels are behind the planet’s warming trend. The fossil fuel industry has had a unique role in causing, shaping, advancing, and defining the current unsustainable fossil fuel-dependent global economy. Climate science demands we decarbonise our entire economy to limit global warming to 1.5° Celsius. This paper builds its arguments starting from the universal recognition of the human right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment by the United Nations General Assembly in 2022. A healthy and functioning environment is a precondition for human welfare. Recognition of the right to a healthy environment contributes to improved environmental outcomes, including cleaner air, enhanced access to safe drinking water and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. One notable development in recent years has been an explosion in climate litigation. The cases are being brought against governments and corporate emitters for breach of environmental and human rights obligations to pressure them to take more ambitious climate action. The two analysed cases from the Netherlands aptly illustrate that human rights arguments played a crucial role in the rulings.

(2) The Interim Accord between Athens and Skopje was signed in 1995. Why was it not possible to reach a compromise and sign the Prespa Agreement at that time?. The Prespa Agreement was signed on the Greek side of the Prespa lake on June 17th 2018 and is named by the location where the name issue was officially ended. The official name of the Prespa Agreement is “Final Agreement for the settlement of the differences as described in the United Nations Security Council Resolutions 817 (1993) and 845 (1993), the termination of the Interim Accord of 1995, and the establishment of a Strategic Partnership between the Parties”. The Prespa Agreement is supposed to be a solution to differences set in the resolutions 817 and 845 from 1993, likewise the Interim Accord from 1995, signed in New York. On the other side of the lake, were present representatives from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Union. The presence of the organizations mentioned above gives high importance for Western Balkans countries. This research aims to understand and explain both sides of the story, the mutual standing points, as well as their differences.
