Sustainability and inequality: confronting the debate
A debate has arisen about the relevance of social justice and inequality issues for the sustainability goals of cities. Many cities exclude these goals as a part of their program as do some authors. This article explains the roots of the debate and how inequality, which undermines social justice, works against sustainability in general and environmental sustainability in particular. Types of city policies which can contribute to reducing inequality and support sustainability are given using elements of New York City policies as examples.
