Learning objective
Explain the climate justice problem in your own words.
Climate change reaches food, water, health, jobs and ecosystems all at once. Africa has historically contributed a small share of global emissions, yet faces some of the heaviest impacts, because so many livelihoods depend directly on stable rainfall, farmland and coastlines. That mismatch is what's often called climate justice.
📝 Worksheet, Lesson 4

Is it fair that countries who emitted the least are often hit hardest? What, if anything, should change about that?
