Abstract

“Climate Justice, Now!” is a banner you often see at climate protests. But what is climate justice? Changes in Earth’s climate impact the whole world, but the impacts are much harsher for some people, particularly poor communities, Indigenous and disadvantaged minorities, young people, and future generations. Importantly, the people who face the most serious impacts of climate change are often those who have contributed the least to the causes of climate change. In this article, we consider why the impacts of climate change are unfair and discuss some ways that we can help reduce this unfairness to bring about climate justice now.
