Dr. Mimi Sheller, Dean of The Global School to participate in Rotterdam's Independent School for the City “Global climate borders and mobility justice” talk

Many people in the Global North enjoy the benefits of extraction economies that exacerbate ocean acidification, rising sea levels and drought. While these changes affect people around the world, many in the Global South bear the brunt of the climate crisis. Environmental justice theory and activism seek to address these uneven distributions of the benefits and burdens of environmental harm. Climate justice and mobility justice attempt to correct the injustices caused by the climate crisis. As globalised environmental and climate injustices force people to move, legal scholars debate the ethics of exclusionary immigration policies in the European Union and the United States of America.
