Which option shows geography understanding climate justice in an urban context?

Correct answer: Higher risk in poor settlements with less green space during heat

The direct answer is A: poor settlements with little green space face higher heat risk during hot periods. Climate justice studies how climate-related benefits, harms and protection differ between social groups. In a city, trees, parks and shaded spaces cool the surroundings and help people cope with heat. Poor communities may have fewer parks, more crowded housing, less access to cooling and greater outdoor work, so the same heat can harm them more. Option A connects heat, poverty, green-space inequality and location, which is exactly an urban climate-justice example. Option B, only reading temperature, measures the physical condition but does not show who is most exposed or protected. Option C, only listening to a forecast, gives useful information but does not analyse unequal social effects or urban space. Option D, writing only the city’s name, provides no evidence about heat or inequality. The reasoning is: heat event, unequal urban environment, unequal exposure and unequal ability to cope. Memory cue: climate justice asks not only how hot it is, but who suffers most and why.
