Justice can and should become a part of feasibility assessments for climate mitigation policies

Concerns of justice are rarely considered within feasibility assessments of climate mitigation policies, even when present conditions and climate action itself have serious implications for vulnerable populations, potentially undermining the desirability and eventual success of mitigation. Hence, we propose a feasibility and desirability assessment framework for future assessments to evaluate practicality and desirability-based constraints while accounting for recognitional, procedural, and distributional justice, increasing transparency within the climate policy process.
