Abstract

The author offers her views on the political argument that is being waged over the creation and application of market-centric policies on climate change. She argues that the prevailing economic precepts on market-based regulation is not fully realized as they lack clear philosophical and societal foundations on which they could stand upon. She then discusses climate markets through the factors that they entail including their epistemology, policy and philosophy of praxis. She then states that climate justice is the best policy for climate change.
