Il locus standi delle persone fisiche e giuridiche e il problema dell’accesso alla giustizia climatica dinanzi al giudice dell’UE dopo la sentenza Carvalho: necessità di riforma della formula “Plaumann”?

The objective of this contribution is to conduct a reflection on the problem of locus standi of natural and legal persons before the Court of Justice of the European Union, which has received a new impetus as a result of the development of a line of case law attributable to the so-called “Climate justice”. The reflection will take into account the rulings of the EU judge, with particular reference to the Carvalho case, but also the latest legislative developments on the subject, characterized by the recent adoption of the new Regulation on the application of the Aarhus Convention, concerning, inter alia, access to environmental justice, to the EU Institutions and bodies. As a preliminary point, a brief analysis of some important rulings coming from national courts on the matter will be also carried out
