In this comprehensive elaboration on the topic, stellar experts and practitioners describe different types of climate-related investment disputes, provide a thorough analysis of the unique procedural issues that emerge in such disputes, and evaluate the proper balance between States' right to regulate to fight climate change and their obligations towards foreign investors.\u003c\/p\u003e  Each of the book's contributions offers a penetrating perspective on this complex matter, touching on such aspects as the following:   \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003einvestment disputes arising from States' climate measures or actions; \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ewhether and how states can file counterclaims against investors in such disputes; \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe appropriate role for climate science at various stages of arbitration;  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e how to assess damages in cases involving fossil assets left stranded by the climate transition; and \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ewhether, on balance, existing international investment law supports or hinders the global energy transition. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e Along the way, arbitrators and other practitioners will gain insight into how to argue, defend, and assess climate-related investment disputes, using not only investment-treaty case law but also international climate agreements, human rights law, and environmental law.
