Climate Change and Inequity : How to Think about Inequities in Different Dimensions

Hassoun, Nicole and Herlitz, Anders LU (2018) p.95-112
Abstract
This chapter introduces a new framework for thinking about climate justice. Climate change and climate negotiations actualize equity considerations in at least three relevant dimensions: distributions of benefits and burdens across countries, within countries, and across individuals in the world. Our proposed framework enables researchers and policymakers to visualize and combine different equity considerations in these dimensions in a novel way. The simplicity of the framework can facilitate putting equity considerations back on the table in international negotiations. The flexibility of the framework enables expansions and incorporations of other equity considerations, for example intergenerational equity.
