F. Fraud Laws

7. POTENTIAL FUTURE APPLICATIONS

Future litigation could utilise existing legislative provisions to file corporate climate cases based on fraud law. For example, legislative provisions such as those enshrined in the Brazil Anti-Corruption Law  (Law No. 12.846/2013) can be applied to companies that practice acts against public patrimony related to environmental and climate issues (see Legislative Provisions - Brazil). In addition, more cases dealing with carbon emission data fraud similar to the ones in China or with VAT carousel fraud in emissions trading as a potential avenue in the Netherlands, might be filed in the future.
