It is almost universally accepted that global warming should not exceed the threshold of two degrees Celsius, At that stage, the debate gets stuck There has been barely a discussion about the legal obligations of the major players: States, enterprises, and investors. The Oslo Principles and the Principles on Climate Obligations of Enterprises aim to fill that gap by mapping very concrete obligations, based on the interpretation of the law as it stands, or will likely develop, by the members of the respective groups. The latter set of principles has been endorsed by—at the time writing—68 distinguished experts from around the globe.
