Climate Litigation Risk Radar

Mapping legal exposure to climate litigation across sectors and activities.

We developed a tool using Lovable to map climate litigation risk across sectors and activities: the Climate Litigation Risk Radar.

The tool allows users to select an industry, an activity, and a jurisdiction, and then generates a visual overview of potential litigation exposure, including:

⁠A visual radar chart of potential litigation risks
A heatmap showing how different sectors compare
A short risk card explaining key areas of legal exposure
⁠A “why this matters” explanation
⁠A checklist of questions organisations may want to consider

The aim isn’t to predict litigation outcomes, and it’s not legal advice. Rather, it illustrates how exposure to climate litigation may arise through different pathways, including greenwashing claims, disclosure obligations, governance issues, supply-chain liability, and strategic climate litigation against high emitters.

Climate litigation has expanded rapidly over the past decade, and organisations are increasingly exposed through multiple legal routes.

Tools like this can help make those risk landscapes more visible and easier to discuss.

Lylian Portes Meira

Lylian Portes Meira is a Brazilian-qualified lawyer based in London, with over five years of experience in cross-border litigation across environmental law and corporate accountability.
More recently, my focus has extended into strategic climate litigation, including work on a case against a national government. Prior to this, I spent five years on major transnational litigation, including the Município de Mariana v BHP case, one of the largest group actions in English legal history.
I built the Climate Litigation Risk Radar because I wanted to make something I engage with daily a little more accessible. The tool allows users to explore litigation risk across sectors, activities, and jurisdictions, and offers a visual overview of the legal pathways through which exposure can arise, including greenwashing claims, disclosure obligations, governance failures, and supply-chain liability. It is not legal advice, but it is meant to open up the conversation.
I am particularly interested in how AI can help make the legal dimensions of the climate crisis more legible to people outside the law, without flattening the complexity that actually matters.
