Abstract

In recent years talk of climate justice has taken off. Yet there are different ways of viewing climate justice. It can be seen as a set of ideas about which there can be competing conceptions (in this respect it is similar to global justice, distributive justice and so on), or it can be viewed as a social movement. In this essay I mainly discuss climate justice as a conception of justice, and conclude that it is not entirely clear what it is supposed to encompass. I conclude, however, that the concept is meaningful enough to do significant work in the climate change discourse.
