Yates et al (2022) examine attitudes towards climate migrants in New Zealand and the role of climate change beliefs and immigration attitudes.

This research paper interrogates the extent to which indigenous, ethnic, and racial diversity is substantively integrated into climate justice discussions with a focus on New Zealand’s climate change adaptation policies. A qualitative research design is used, employing a documentary analysis and summative content analysis to scrutinise New Zealand climate change adaptation policies and their responsiveness to indigenous, ethnic and racial diversity within the ambit of climate justice. This study aims to measure the extent to which these policies promote inclusive and equitable climate adaptation outcomes. This study makes a significant contribution to the nuanced understanding of climate justice research, particularly regarding indigenous and ethnic minority communities. The study is expected to contribute to the existing knowledge base and inform the formulation of inclusive policies that integrate the diverse perspectives of these communities into climate adaptation and policy-making processes. The research findings highlight existing gaps and emphasise the importance of incorporating indigenous, ethnic, and racial diversity into policy development and implementation. The aim is to shape climate adaptation strategies that are representative of aware of insights from various communities in contemporary cities.

“…For example, environmental justice beliefs and perceived fairness of specific policies are linked to greater acceptance of climate policies 25 . Climate justice awareness predicts positive attitudes toward climate migrants 26 ; climate activists commonly report justice-seeking as their motivation 27 , and moral concerns about climate change (like concern about negative impacts on future generations or people in poor countries) have been linked with greater climate policy support 28 .…”

Contemporary climate change advocacy, science, and policymaking widely incorporate justice framing, but little is known about public understanding of climate justice and the degree to which justice-related beliefs function as a motivation for climate action and policy support. We assessed climate justice awareness among adults in 11 countries spanning the Global North and South (N = 5,627). Most participants (66.2%) had never heard of climate justice. Endorsement of common climate justice-related beliefs was widespread (e.g., acknowledging the need to give voice to frontline communities, and the underpinning role of colonialism and capitalism in the climate crisis). Climate justice beliefs were associated with various indices of climate action and policy support. These associations tended to be stronger in high emitting countries and where social inequality is a more politically salient topic. The results highlight a risk that less privileged groups, often the most affected, are left out of climate justice discourse.

The aim of this paper is to explore the links between climate action, human rights and sustainability. The study is performed through an extensive literature review, combining aspects PRISMA guidelines and the Recursive Content Abstraction (RCA) analytical approach. First, we present the intrinsic relationship between climate change and SDGs, and how their compliance could be affected by climate change. Next, we analyze the evolution of human rights, and how present and future climate change impacts can harm the human rights of the first, second, third and fourth generations. We also discuss the importance of the government´s policies and actions to protect and guarantee human rights within the actual reality of climate change effects, adaptation, and mitigation in the face of sustainable development goals (SDGs). We sustain that both national policies and international cooperation are necessary to affront the climate change challenges, guaranteeing the human rights at the same time. Based on the topics discussed, at the end the paper presents some final remarks.
