The Intersection of Climate Change and Social Justice

     Social justice refers to the concept of ensuring that all individuals and groups in society are treated fairly and have equal access to opportunities and resources. It is concerned with addressing systemic inequalities and promoting a more equitable distribution of power, wealth, and privileges within a society. Climate change and social justice are interconnected issues, as the effects of climate change disproportionately impact marginalized communities. Climate change exacerbates existing social inequalities, and those who are most vulnerable to its impacts are often those who have contributed the least to its causes. The intersection of climate change and social justice requires a multi-faceted approach to address the root causes of both issues and create a more equitable and sustainable future (Solomonian 5).
