Climate justice discussions need new participants and new audiences
We greatly appreciate Coolsaet et al.’s Correspondence1, which gives us the opportunity to clarify and emphasize the scope and intended use of our framework.
With respect to scope, we are in agreement with our colleagues that various forms of justice (that is, distributional, procedural and so on) have been discussed in different disciplines. We thus believe, as stated in our paper, that the novelty of our contribution lies not predominantly “in the philosophical structure, but in the cross-disciplinary translation [of philosophical concepts], the clarity of exposition and ease of application”2. For instance, by indicating how the various forms of justice are independent, we hope to facilitate researchers finding and specifying the precise forms of justice that are most relevant to their own projects.
