1	En Teori om Klimaträttvisa / A Theory of Climate Justice Langman, Jonas January 2022 (has links) This essay investigates three questions relating to Climate Justice and are as follows: To what degree ought the global warming be restricted, How ought the greenhouse gas emissions be divided and How ought the costs related to the climate change be divided. To be able to answer these questions principles of justice are needed. An argument is therefore constructed modeled after John Rawls Original Position in general and The Veil of Ignorance in particular. The conclusions from this essay are that the global temperature increase ought to be restricted to 1.5 degrees Celsius with support from Maximin as a principle of justice. As a consequent to this goal net zero emissions need to be the case as soon as possible. The remaining possible emissions ought to be divided equally with support from Maximin as a principle of justice. For the last question it is suggested that the costs ought to be paid by the ones how have emitted greenhouse gases, this according to the principle of Polluter Pays. climate justice polluter pays beneficary pays ability to pay the veil slöjan emissions egalitarianism Rawls klimaträttvisa climate justice polluter pays Philosophy Filosofi
