The Greenhouse Development Rights Framework
The Right to Development in a Climate Constrained World
November 26, 2008
In a world of global poverty and the threat of climate change – what action would be re-quired to deliver human development, economic opportunity and dignity to poor people? The now published and updated Greenhouse Development Rights Framework argues that the best way to break the impasse between the climate and the development crisis is sim-ply by expanding the climate protection agenda to include the protection of development dignity. The Greenhouse Development Rights Framework provides an interesting approach towards combining sustainability goals and development equity.
