Who's Gonna Save Us? 04 | We fought the law

Gomeroi woman Dorothy Tighe stood up to a room full of powerful people for her country. Student Solomon Yeo took his message from a Vanuatu university to the UN General Assembly. 

Solomon's story and the fight of the Gomeroi are part of a new wave of climate action: one that's happening in courtrooms.

It's all about finding bold and creative ways to stand up and be heard, amid a surge of climate litigation around the world. 

The law is there to protect us. So what can it say about the biggest threat of all?
