Shangrila Joshi's book explores the multiple scales of climate change inequities and how resource commons, particularly atmosphere and forests, are implicated in climate governance. It highlights North-South disparities in responsibility, vulnerability, and capability and examines how structural inequalities are embedded in neoliberal climate solutions. Drawing on qualitative interviews, participant observation, and textual analysis, the book articulates a geography of climate justice, considering how ideas of injustice intersect with the politics of scale.

This comprehensive book delves into the intricate web of disparities that arise from climate change, examining its impact on various scales. Shangrila Joshi conducts a multi-scalar analysis, shedding light on the role of resource commons, particularly the atmosphere and forests, in climate governance. Throughout, she emphasizes the justice implications for marginalized communities, highlighting the North-South inequalities in responsibility, vulnerability, and capability evident in global climate treaty negotiations.
The book proceeds to explore how structural inequalities are embedded in the conceptualization and implementation of neoliberal climate solutions like REDD+ and the Clean Development Mechanism. Drawing from qualitative interviews, participant observation at the Climate Conference in Copenhagen (COP-15), and textual analysis of official documents, Joshi articulates a geography of climate justice, examining how ideas of injustice related to colonialism, race, Indigeneity, caste, gender, and global inequality intersect with the politics of scale.
This book is a valuable resource for students and scholars engaged in environmental justice, climate justice, climate policy, political ecology, and South Asian studies. It offers insightful perspectives and methodologies for understanding the complex dynamics of climate change and its impact on societies. By unraveling the scales of injustice, this book contributes to the ongoing efforts to promote equity and sustainability in the face of this global challenge.
