Climate winners should pay | Kian Mintz-Woo and Justin Leroux

In this article, Kian Mintz-Woo and Justin Leroux tackle the complex issue of what climate winners owe to climate losers. How should climate justice address this variety of climate winners and losers? In other words, after they have paid for the climate harms, they should be paid for the climate benefits. Should the victims still need compensation, however, the climate winners would come to the climate victim’s aid directly instead. Solely focusing on the negatives of climate change overlooks potential sources of tax income to abate the climate crisis.
