Climate Justice Project Academic Publications and Discussion Papers

The Climate Justice Project brings together a multi-disciplinary team of academics from three BC universities, and researchers and advisors from environmental organizations, First Nations, labour unions, social justice groups, and other research institutes. 

Much of the Climate Justice Project's research has been published by the CCPA and is available here. In addition, its research has been published in books, discussion papers, journal articles, and periodicals – some examples of these are listed below.
