Justice must be based on legitimacy, and climate justice is no exception. This means the procedure by which decisions are made—around reparations for climate loss and damage, sharing the global carbon budget, debt relief and climate financing— must be inclusive and transparent. To be fair, climate justice decisions must also be accountable and proportionate, which means using internationally agreed standards of measurement and calculation.

Responding to key insights from Session two, this discussion will bring together people working in different ways towards actually decarbonising Higher Education.

Key questions we will consider include:

What is the Global Carbon Budget, and how is it key to Climate Justice?

Why should creative universities choose Science Based Targets?

Who should creative universities work with towards decarbonisation?

Starting 26.05.22
