Perspective<br />

Highlights<br />

New England Journal of Medicine <strong>2022</strong>; 387:1829-1831, DOI: 10.1056/NEJMp2213503<br />

In this Perspective authors call for urgent action to ensure climate justice<br />

for Africa and vulnerable countries. Authors highlight that African countries<br />

suffered disproportionately, making them most impacted nations although their<br />

contribution to the global cumulative emissions is the least. While North America<br />

and Europe are responsible for 62% of carbon emissions since the Industrial<br />

Revolution, Africa contributed only 3%. Wealthy nations should finally step up<br />

before the climate crises engulf all corners of the world.<br />
