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?
