Climate as object of ecological legal relationship
The environmental disaster which occurred in the spring-summer of 2015 in the Volga-Akhtubinsky flood plain caused by a severe drought and reduction of dumping of water from the Volga hydroelectric power station sets thinking on consequences of global climate change and measures of counteraction to this threat of the XXI century. The author believes that no law is able to contain in itself all package of measures on prevention of consequences of climatic changes as it is a complex problem, to solve which representatives of various sciences have to. Thus during development of new climatic strategy (including its legal block) it is necessary to proceed not only from problems of mitigation of consequences of climate change (by reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases), but also strategy of adaptation to negative consequences of climate change.
