Newshour

Available for over a year

Young climate activists in Norway have taken the issue of Arctic oil drilling to the European Court of Human Rights. They argue that, by allowing new oil drilling in the midst of a climate crisis, Norway is breaching fundamental human rights. Norway's government says "the future Norwegian energy sector will be capable of delivering production with low emissions鈥�. Activist Mia Cathryn Chamberlain told Newshour's Razia Iqbal why she's taken the case to the human rights court.
