A Mexican court will later this week hear a case brought on by 15 young people demanding the government of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador set out clear policies on climate change, documents show.
Lopez Obrador is under increased pressure to help mitigate the effects of climate change.
The plaintiffs from the state Baja California filed a legal stay of proceedings, known locally as amparo, before a district court in administrative matters, several documents related to the case show.
In it, the youths, aged 17 to 23, demand clearer regulations and public policies . . .
