Abstract
Every day, we face new challenges and strive to improve ourselves. However, in order to keep up with this rapid expansion, we neglected the environmental challenges that are right in front of us. Climate change has been in the spotlight for over a decade due to melting ice caps at the poles, rising ocean levels around the world, harmful effects on flora and fauna risking the extinction of many species, and a slew of other factors that, if not addressed now, could render our planet uninhabitable. The Apex Court of India has the authority to bring the change required to reality. This paper will analyse the effectiveness of the Supreme Court while dealing with environmental matters and its inability to hold an individual liable while hunting down the corporations deteriorating the environment. Further, this paper will briefly analyse the consequence of the Environmental Impact Assessment Policy, 2020 on the Judiciary.
