Never before in the history of mankind have environmental concerns in the wake of economic growth heralded governance predicaments as we face today.  Climate change presents societal, international and intergenerational fairness as challenge for modern economies and contemporary democracies.

In today’s climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts, high and low income households, developed and underdeveloped countries and overlapping generations are affected differently.

Based on insights from the current endeavor to finance the post-COP21 Paris agreement action plan, the newly-launched Mapping Climate Justice Project proposes a 3-dimensional climate justice approach in order to find a universally fair climate strategy.

Mapping Climate Justice will elucidate international climate regimes around the world based on geographic, technological, socio-economic and political factors.  An interactive graphic solution highlighting different countries’ climate stability efforts targets at finding ways to share the benefits and burdens of climate change equally within society, between countries and over time.

Comparing international climate mitigation and adaptation as well as unraveling complex interdependencies will help protect vulnerable communities from variegated climate change risks while opening ways for all to enjoy the upsides of a warming earth.

While law, economics and governance scientifically ground the project, the urgent messages will also be enlivened by arts and creatively staged in design nudges.  Citizen artist and behavioral design professionals will innovatively embrace a broad array of different stakeholders by inspiring empathy through emotions and wink with wit for care about our common earth.

Proceeding Project:  Economics of Climate Justice

Climate justice has been discussed in the focal point of law, economics and governance.  The implementation of climate stability accounts for the most challenging contemporary global governance predicament that seems to pit today’s against future generations in the trade-off of economic growth versus sustainability.  As a novel angle towards climate justice, we propose a behavioral economics solution to elicit future-oriented loss aversion.  In an overlapping-generations framework, we solve the climate change abatement aversion in the fear of costs curbing economic growth by building on Sachs (2014).  The current generation thereby mitigates climate change financed through bonds to remain financially as well off as without mitigation while improving environmental well-being of future generations.  This intergenerational tax-and-transfer policy turns climate change mitigation into a Pareto improving strategy.  Sachs’ (2014) discrete model is integrated in contemporary growth and resource theories.  We analyze how climate bonds can be phased in a model for a socially optimal solution.  We also test if the climate change debt adjusted growth model stays within the bounds of a sustainable fiscal policy by employing nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC), which solves complex dynamic systems with different nonlinearities.  Overall, shifting the costs for climate abatement to the recipients of the benefits of climate stability appears as novel, feasible and easily-implementable solution to nudge overlapping generations towards future-oriented loss aversion in the sustainability domain.
