Climate change becomes a “question of justice” – Ethics Council warns. “People with less money contribute less to climate change on average, but are burdened more,” said Ethics Council member Kerstin Schlstögl-Flierl.

The committee presented 13 specific recommendations at the federal press conference. There was also a special vote in the Ethics Council report on climate justice. The Ethics Council recommends that the conflicts and possible costs of climate change and how to combat them be discussed more precisely in public.
