A study center billed as the world's first legal research center into climate change will be opened in Canberra, Australia, on Friday, a statement from the Australian National University said on Wednesday.

Subjects on the researchers' agenda include the international legal regime for tackling climate change post-Kyoto, climate litigation, encouraging renewable energy, and the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions from transport and forestry.

The center is located in the Australian National University (ANU). The ANU Center for Climate Law and Policy has been established in response to a growing awareness of the legal dimensions of global warming, the statement said.

The center will offer postgraduate courses in climate law and policy, as well as conduct research.
