In this context, the concept of climate justice highlights the need for a fair distribution of responsibility and sacrifices in facing the challenges of climate change, as the need arises to provide the necessary financing, technologies and resources to the countries of the South to help them adapt to the effects of climate change and reduce its negative impacts. These circumstances make studying climate justice between countries of the North and South necessary, to understand the existing gaps and develop effective ways to achieve balance and justice in countries’ dealings with the challenges of climate change.
