What is Climate Justice?

Developing countries have not been the ones to cause climate change, but they are being dispropotionately affected. And if we’re to stop dangerous climate change while still seeking to raise living standards for billions of poor people, a redistribution of wealth and power is needed. This session will look at ‘climate debt’, false solutions such as carbon trading, and how climate change is an economic justice issue.
