Quote on Climate Change and Social Inequalities

"Climate change is not just an environmental crisis. It is also a human rights crisis, a social and economic injustice, because the poorest and most vulnerable suffer the most, even though they are the least responsible."

— Mary Robinson, former President of Ireland and former United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights
