The paper deals mainly with the emerging legal issues related to climate change and their interlinkages with the WTO law, human rights law, investment law and environmental law. While the comprehensive international legal regime for climate change is still not established, the guidance in articulating objectives can be found in human rights law; environmental, trade and investment law, on the other hand, offer the operational rules for the new regime. This paper rests upon an assumption of a common and shared concern of mankind for climate change.
