From climate science to climate justice, and back

If climate science is expected to inform climate justice, as in the context of loss and damage, this paper aims to highlight that the connection between climate science and climate justice goes both ways: justice considerations can actually also inform the production of scientific knowledge. A nice illustration is provided by the recent incorporation of justice considerations within the planetary boundary framework of Earth system science. But we will see that such incorporation of justice considerations also raises a number of important challenges.
