Torres Strait Islanders lose climate case against Australian government, but plan to appeal.
Two Torres Strait Islanders, Uncle Pabai Pabai and Uncle Paul Kabai, lost their landmark climate case against the Australian government, which argued for a duty of care to protect their homes from climate change impacts.
While the court acknowledged the severe effects of climate change on their islands, it dismissed the case due to limitations in negligence law regarding government policy decisions.
Despite the loss, the uncles plan to continue their fight and explore appeals.
