Climate Tribunal

The Climate Tribunal wants to shift perception regarding climate change by exposing historical, scientific, political-economic, and criminal evidence of how the fossil fuel industry is accountable for having caused climate change. This publication features texts and research from the activist and artistic work on climate change by Paolo Cirio. His Climate Tribunal framework reaches out to both the general public and cultural producers to further climate justice activism by popularizing climate litigation and critique of the fossil fuel economy and politics. The essays, research, and interventions by Paolo Cirio aim to provide reflection and knowledge for journalists, thinkers, curators, artists, activists, and anyone communicating and engaging in culture around climate change. These reflections debunk the cultural misconceptions on climate change and discuss its forms of representation to examine pressing ethical concerns in adapting and adjusting to a new cultural and social reality.
