Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

A worldwide issue, climate change necessitates integrated responses with technical, economic, and social components. However, the current and near-term effects of climate change on social systems are poorly understood. Closing that knowledge gap is essential to creating mitigation and adaptation plans that work at the technical and policy levels. We can investigate how financial policies, social practices, and technological developments might be combined to produce more equitable and effective climate results. The aim of this Special Issue is to close the knowledge gap across these fields and promote a deeper comprehension of the intricate relationships that influence mitigation and response strategies to climate change. 

We invite submissions that address the following topics:

  • The impact of new trends (technologies, wellbeing, circular economy, etc.) on climate change.
  • Climate change adaptation/mitigation and energy economy transitions.
  • Advanced economic models capturing the interactions of climate–economy–technology–human beings.
  • Empirical evaluation of climate and human society.
  • GHG emission reduction strategies.
  • Climate change data analytics for sustainable policies.
  • Risk management, resilience, and sustainable development.
  • Decision–making and decision–support systems for human society. 

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
