Abstract
AbstractIn this chapter, we draw on political philosophy and ethics to identify ten principles of distributive justice that are relevant to climate policy. We have divided these principles into four categories: ‘greatest utility’, ‘individual rights and freedoms’, ‘solidarity and capacity’ and ‘contribution and benefit’. We briefly discuss some important ethical and political-philosophical schools associated with these categories, and elaborate on the ten principles.
