Abstract
In this paper, I address two aspects of UN-Women’s programme of work on feminist climate justice. First,
to elaborate on the potential of adding a fourth R– reparation – to the now established justice-trio
of redistribution, recognition and representation. Second, to set out the ways in which a feminist ethics
of care presents important synergies with proposals for ecological justice and decolonial thinking. I explain how this not only gives rise to a new set of moral and material obligations, but also, crucially,
provides the potential for progressive solidarities and transformative alliances
