Several environmental protection laws and agreements at the national and international level have been working to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. But, discrepancies in these laws, as well as the lack of a coherent approach, have already led to setbacks. In this paper, the authors discuss the fragmented state of international environmental law, as well as other conflicts that arise between member states due to policy differences. Multiple institutions and agreements between member states on the international stage have led to contradictory policies. This paper highlights such discrepancies between international law in the fields of climate change, trade, and human rights. Moreover, it talks about the actions that can be taken by countries and institutions to provide a more comprehensive approach to climate change mitigation and prevention.
