When extreme weather events strike, who picks up the cheque? With the more devastating effects of climate change disproportionately hitting the Global South, Climate Curious asks the question “What does climate justice look like, and how much will it cost?” Enter climate justice advocate, Harjeet Singh, and his work with The Loss and Damage Fund. A mechanism designed to redistribute money from polluters to the survivors of extreme weather events. From helping communities with loss of life, biodiversity, homes, and land, Harjeet shares how this mechanism can rebalance the scales and make sure that polluters are actually paying for their emissions.
