Abstract
For too long climate change addressed as an environmental issue without truly articulating that this is first and foremost a social/environmental justice issue. Using a justice framework that includes the principles of distribution, recognition, and procedural, this article explores how innovation can address causes of climate injustice. The article highlights opportunities for introducing social and technological innovation in two areas: communities and institutions. The discussion of these two areas underscores the many potential roles of social and technological innovation: (1) to handle the impacts of extreme weather in communities; and (2) to create climate and energy resilient institutions. Furthermore, the article shows that this (in)justice framework is useful to better capture the role of innovations in the reduction of existing inequalities. This study calls attention to the pivotal role that innovative social and technological approaches play in finding solutions for climate injustice.
