Section 24O of the National Environmental Management Act, 107 of 1998 (NEMA), outlines the
criteria that a competent authority must consider when evaluating an application for
environmental authorization. This section ensures that the environmental impacts of proposed
activities are comprehensively assessed to promote sustainable development. Analyzing whether
this includes the impacts of climate change requires examining both the specific provisions of
NEMA and relevant case law.

when evaluating an application for environmental authorization, including:

the application is approved or refused.**
