Brundtland Commission - Meeting Emission Standards The Brundtland Commission was concerned about environmental degradation because it leads to poverty and economic disparities among societies. The 2007 and 2013 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports showed that global warning exacerbated disparities because the economic loss caused by climate change falls hardest on the poorest nations. This disparity raises some very basic questions of fairness. In a short essay advise whether it is ethical or fair to require undeveloped third-world countries to meet the same emissions standards as Western countries, which have emitted about 20 times as much GHG per capital for the past century. Do not forget to acknowledge any sources you use. Jill 3.
