Contraction and convergence
A complicated term with a complicated explanation for one of the most fair and just approaches towards carbon justice for the world. The approach wants countries to agree a system for assessing their emissions and agreeing carbon ‘budgets’ (based on a carbon allowance for each individual) which each country must then work towards meeting.
