Abstract

In a context shaped by new global challenges in turmoil due to climatic emergency, Japanese case law on environmental tort could constitute a significant experience. Through judicial resolution of environmental disputes, Japanese courts have developed relevant criteria in the environmental tort law. This paper aims to analyse the innovative aspects developed in Japan, with the purpose of identifying a model capable of addressing the challenges posed by advanced technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence. In particular, the paper will seek to highlight the most relevant features that may offer new perspectives and insights even beyond Japan’s borders, in light of the global dimension of both climate change and the advent of AI.
