The Case Against Climate Reparations

What Next: TBD | Tech, power, and the future - A podcast by Slate Podcasts

Categories:

At this year’s annual UN conference on climate change, they are discussing “climate reparations,” wherein the rich countries that grew their wealth burning fossil fuels pay money to poorer and more vulnerable countries. It sounds sensible, but is the UN capable of administering something like this? And how much money are we talking here?
