5 defend themselves from the onslaught of this catastrophe. And this is on top of the huge injustice that those responsible for this predicament remain powerful, retain control over vast resources, enjoys the disproportionate share of the world’s material and financial wealth, and to this day remain remorseless and unaccountable. An equally horrendous injustice we need to keep our eyes on is the intergenerational climate injustice. Do you care for your children, grandchildren, and their children and grandchildren? If rapid climate change remains unfettered, it is ultimately the future generations that will suffer most. In the logic of justice, those who have not even been born have zero responsibility for this problem but surely they will bear the biggest brunt of this great wrong. It does not matter which country they come from for climate change chooses to respect no boundaries, but surely future generations will not be thanking us for our inaction. We must hold to account those responsible, make them stop the damage they willfully cause, and rally the whole world to end the fossil fuel era. Those who have profited the most in ‘using up’ the atmospheric limits that is now causing dangerous climate disruption must be held to account. Governments and corporate behemoths responsible for lion’s share of cumulative global emissions are now facing the collective indignation of seniors and youth, farmers and fishers, islanders and highlanders, indigenous peoples, survivors, grassroots organizations, trade unions, people from different walks of life. Various forms of legal actions are being pursued with the aim of holding these polluters accountable. On the international climate policy process: “If I have a lever long enough, I can move the world.” - Archimedes The international community has gone a long way in evolving the multilateral approach to addressing climate change, largely through the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the ultimate objective of which is: “to achieve, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Convention, stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. Such a level should be achieved within a time frame sufficient to allow ecosystems to adapt naturally to climate change, to ensure that food production is not threatened and to enable economic development to proceed in a sustainable manner.”1 The UNFCCC, adopted in 1992 during the Earth Summit, is the main platform for international response on climate change. The UNFCCC lays down the 1 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Article 2.
