Abstract  

The heterogeneity of climate justice is not conducive to the in-depth research on the connotation of climate justice. Therefore, the relationship of climate justice connotation should be built on the basis of different value levels. The structure of climate justice connotation could be integrated with the following framework: climate distribution justice → intra-generation climate justice → climate correction justice →international climate justice(→ domestic inter⁃generation climate justice → domestic endowment climate justice). Such a framework creates a clear path for the realization of climate distribution justice and climate correction justice. Furthermore, it contributes to the improvement of “per capita cumulative carbon emissions budget” initiative proposed by Chinese scholars, the realization of emission reduction combining both “bottom-up” and “top-down” approaches in the context of “national independent contribution” prescribed in the Paris Agreement, and interpretation of the clause that those small island countries and the least developed countries are not legally compulsory to reduce emission.
