Environmental and Ecological Justice

  • Chapter
Palgrave Advances in International Environmental Politics

Part of the book series: Palgrave Advances ((PAD))

Abstract

It has become painfully clear over the last three decades that the causes and consequences of global environmental degradation cannot be addressed without tackling inequality and injustice. The ‘pollution of the rich and poor’ was a charged sub-theme of the 1972 United Nations Stockholm Conference (raised first by Indira Gandhi) and has steadily gained force at subsequent gatherings: Rio in 1992 and Johannesburg in 2002. With economic globalization and the increasing awareness of global warming’s devastating potential have come new discourses to address inequality on these vaster scales. Environmental issues such as climate change are being ‘reframed’ as issues of global justice, and as this happens, new potential alliances between poor nations and environmental social movements are emerging.

The views expressed in this chapter are the authors’ own and do not necessarily represent the views of the Millennium Challenge Corporation.
