Filing Year For Action

Friends of the Irish Environment have lodged an appeal against a decision by Ireland's planning authority (a quasi-judicial body) to grant approval for a multi-billion-euro data centre complex in Ireland. The plaintiff argues that the project could jeopardise Ireland’s climate targets and undermine international and EU law. The complaint primarily relies on Ireland's domestic climate legislation, EU law concerning environmental impact assessments, and the ICJ Advisory Opinion on Climate Change.
