The complex interconnectedness of climate change and social inequality

Dias R

Reinaldo Dias


Resumen

This article addresses the interconnectedness between climate change and social inequality, highlighting how global warming exacerbates existing disparities. Climate change, driven by anthropogenic emissions, disproportionately affects the poorest, increasing risks of natural disasters, health problems, and loss of agricultural production. Social inequality is exacerbated by climate change, with women and girls being particularly affected due to their reliance on climate-vulnerable resources and unequal access to opportunities. The phenomenon of climate refugees, resulting from climate-induced disasters, is a growing challenge, still without clear legal and political solutions. In addition, children face heightened risks due to their vulnerability to climate shocks. The article argues that mitigation policies and strategies should integrate social and economic development, with multisectoral approaches, green technological innovation, environmental education, climate finance focused on social justice, and inclusion and empowerment policies. The need for a holistic and integrated response is emphasized to effectively address both climate change and social inequality.
