Examining Climate Justice with Regional Disaster Resilience

     "Climate Justice" explains "climate change as the source of a double inequality with an inverse distribution of risk and responsibility around the regions.” It is also represents a “disproportionate disaster risk burden” between regions, and focus on the limit of the living conditions in climate change. Recently, the issue of "climate justice" has been highly valued internationally. Before the start of the “United Nations Climate Change Conference”(COP24) in 2018, there were 130 countries and 403 nonprofit organization signed a statement and required that all governments needed to pay attention to climate justice and should include in “Paris Agreetment”.
     In recent years, there has been a correlation between climate justice research and “disaster resilience”, but it can be found that the research of climate justice is not much different from the general disaster resilience research, and the analysis of the research is less included in the inequality of climate justice. In addition, the meanings and theories of "climate justice" have not been systematically generalized in the past literature.
Therefore, in addition to thoroughly understanding the theory and contents of "climate justice" this research will identify areas with "climate injustice" characteristics through quantitative research methods (Spatial Autocorrelation e.g.). Besides, climate change is a " long-term impact ", it is not easy to calculate from a single timing, so this research will join the time factors to analyze the "time lag effect."  
     This research will choose Taiwan as the research area and focus on flooding data because of the unfairness between water management budget and the flooding condition of the extreme rainfall. Then the above research results will be incorporated into the “Climate Justice ” theory as a basis for diagnosing regional disaster resilience and give advice on policy and planning in response to climate justice.
