A Climate Change Act - Comments from a Finnish Legal PerspectiveRobert UtterRoschier Attorneys Ltd.; University of Eastern Finland - Climate Change Law Research Group March 4, 2013 University of Eastern Finland Legal Studies Research Paper No. 12 Abstract: The Finnish Government has announced that a climate change bill will be drafted. The bill would set a greenhouse gas emission reduction target of 80 % by the year 2050. The planned bill would form a framework for setting climate policy, but would not contain policies and measures intended to directly affect companies or individuals. Therefore the planned bill would somehow need to be integrated into the Finnish legal system and its already existing measures that have a direct or indirect influence on climate policy. Achieving the emission reduction target is not automatic, nor would the proposed planning and reporting instruments by themselves have such an outcome. The framework nature of the planned bill in a way defers into the future difficult constitutional and legislative questions relating to the sought advantages of a climate change act, such as effectiveness and streamlining climate policy.
