This chapter supports UN SDG 13, Climate Action. The chapter's focuses on technologies like CCUS and renewable energy integration that directly reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the petroleum sector.
Drawing inspiration from recent European Union agricultural and environmental policy reforms, this study examines the barriers between scientific advancements, farm-scale applications, and the implementation of agricultural policies.
This chapter supports UN SDGs 7, 11, and 13 by offering a structure for urban policy-makers to create sustainable and energy-efficient cities by means of combined urban design, creative policy development, and environmentally friendly transportation options.
The article examines the complex systemic risks and vulnerabilities arising from the transition to renewable energy and climate change, emphasizing the need for integrated risk management and collaboration to enhance resilience for first responders and policymakers.
This paper highlights the potential of engineered mineral carbonation to transform cement and concrete into effective carbon sinks by enhancing CO2 storage while maintaining material performance, emphasizing the use of alkaline industrial residues and carbonatable binders. It proposes a strategic roadmap integrating scientific innovation, regulation, and carbon accounting to promote climate-positive construction.
This perspective argues that current WASH resilience strategies in low- and middle-income countries are insufficient, emphasizing the need for a transformative approach that addresses broader socio-environmental impacts of climate change. It proposes a research agenda focused on identifying which WASH systems to transform, the timing, leadership roles, and methods for monitoring and evaluating these transformations to achieve sustainable outcomes.
The article proposes a predictive control strategy for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) that utilizes route information from digital map providers to enable electric driving within zero-emission zones. The study develops a supervisory control with Dynamic Programming in the cloud to calculate an optimal State of Charge (SOC) trajectory, which is then used to guide the rule-based controller in the vehicle.
This study investigates the use of problem-based learning (PBL) by geography teachers in Northwest Ethiopia to address deforestation and climate change education.
The study demonstrates that adopting more climate-friendly diets, which typically involve reduced animal-based food consumption and lower absolute micronutrient intakes, does not substantially increase the risk of micronutrient deficiencies for most nutrients. These findings underscore the importance of assessing both dietary intake and actual nutrient status when evaluating the nutritional consequences of sustainable eating patterns, supporting the potential health and environmental benefits of shifting toward climate-friendly diets.
This article offers a comprehensive review of how climate policies in Least Developed Countries (LDCs) interact with all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a particular focus on SDG13 (Climate Action). It identifies a significant research gap, showing that only 5% of relevant studies focus on LDCs, and emphasizes the need for more inclusive, context-specific data and policy analysis. The authors propose a holistic resilience framework, combining infrastructural, institutional, and informational dimensions, to guide future climate policy that supports sustainable development across all SDGs.
