Through their use of natural resources, presently living people will
affect the conditions under which future people will live. This raises
questions of intergenerational as well as global justice: What do
presently living people owe future generations, in particular, which
natural resources, with the policy options they allow, should remain
available to future generations (and to what extent)? Who among the
presently living should bear what costs of fulfilling the duties
towards future generations? Further, it is particularly the
industrialized countries of the global North who have caused the
problem of climate change, in part because of the fact that the
process of industrialization came with increasing levels of
emissions. At the same time, the harmful effects of climate change
will be felt disproportionately by developing countries (particularly
those in the global South), who have benefited far less from
industrialization. Do OECD countries and their citizens therefore
stand under special duties towards the victims of climate change in
the global South?
