Adapt or Perish in Climate Change: Historical Responsibility and the Global North-South Divide

  Historical Responsibility and the Global North-South Divide Global North-South Divide One of the most contentious aspects of climate justice is the historical responsibility of developed nations, primarily in the Global North, for driving climate change through industrialization. Historical responsibility is a legacy that divides the Global North and South, with the latter disproportionately bearing the negative consequences of climate change despite contributing  the least emissions they contribute to global warming. This subtopic studies the origins of this division, the ethical debates surrounding historical responsibility, and the mechanisms proposed to address these injustices. The Legacy of Industrialization and Historical Emissions The Industrial Revolution, which started in the late 18th century, was a turning point in history, enabling unprecedented economic progress and technological advancement . The crucial part of the revolution was the birth of large...
