Dr. Jacqueline Lorenzen is a junior professor for the law of sustainability and ecological transformation at the University of Bonn and was appointed Argelander Professor. As the pressing challenges posed by climate change evolve, new legal norms and related questions are increasingly emerging, which experts like Professor Lorenzen address – in research, legal development, and consulting.
Legal issues in climate change are increasingly emerging.
"A flood of laws" poses a challenge to all those concerned with climate change and its consequences. Are norms functional? Are they still reasonable and just, and if not, what then? Legal scholars always ensure the legal framework on which new laws are based.

Developing climate law transdisciplinarily
Jacqueline Lorenzen first listens to what other disciplines have to say about a difficult situation before assessing a proposal for a new legal norm. For example, physicists and engineers, as users of legal norms, want to develop and market a heat shield to protect the elderly and children. Sustainability law is intended to promote and protect. Her central instrument for this is the legal text.
