Abstract How we frame environmental problems and their solutions matters. Under the UK Net Zero Strategy and the European Green Deal, climate action-as a policy- and regulatory response to climate change-is framed overwhelmingly positive and coupled with the ambitions to generate growth, facilitate innovation, improve health and wellbeing, ensure inclusiveness and much else. This is done to project climate ambitions as part of a win-win scenario where no one is left behind. Yet it is unclear how each of the different aims relate to each other, which risks creating legal dilemmas, and possibly undermining climate action altogether.
