Abstract
This article discusses Climate Justice Theories (TCJ). With the development of a “triangle concept of justice”, it offers a plausible normative framework for climate and development policy to provide a further incentive for discussing the still highly disputed ethical aspects. Two critical themes of learning about power and learning about place are used as examples to illustrate learning across the three levels.
