Climate change considerations under international groundwater law
Most of the earth’s groundwater is in transboundary aquifers. This vital water resource will certainly be affected by climate change. This article reviews the global climate change framework to investigate how it considers water, and groundwater in particular. It then considers the international legal regime applicable to groundwater resources to explore how it deals with climate change and to what extent it is compatible with the UNFCCC framework. It concludes with identifying the limits and possibilities of the groundwater regime in addressing climate change.
