"Who Bears Responsibility for Climate Change: Core or Peripheral Nations?"

Captions available

The idea

How much responsibility core versus peripheral nations bear for climate mitigation, per Soc 0875/0876, is a live dispute reported without adjudicating either side.

In practice

One position holds core nations, industrialized first, should bear the larger cost; the other holds developing nations deserve that same growth.

Where people slip

Per this course's neutrality convention, both traditions are stated at their strongest; no verdict is given.
