Meyer, Teena Gabrielson, Cheryl Hall, and David Schlosberg<\/p>\n<p>This chapter surveys the origin and development of environmental justice discourse from its early use as a civil rights strategy to resist the siting of hazardous waste facilities in the neighborhoods of poor people of color to its more contemporary usage as a directive for equity in global cooperation in pursuit of environmental sustainability. From debates among scholars and activists over the demands of justice as applied to problems of global climate change mitigation and adaptation, or climate justice, it examines three principles of justice invoked in a landmark climate treaty and later applied to the design and evaluation of international climate change policy efforts. The chapter concludes by considering potential new directions that environmental justice theorizing might take in the context of other issues in environmental politics. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oxfordhandbooks.com\/view\/10.1093\/oxfordhb\/9780199685271.001.0001\/oxfordhb-9780199685271-e-13\" target=\"_blank\">Read more \u2026<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Steve Vanderheiden The Oxford Handbook of Environmental Political Theory (2016) Edited by John M.
