This work highlights what we know about climate change impacts that have happened and discuss future directions for research. It supports SDG 13 and 14.
This study links multiple models for a comprehensive assessment of the economic-environmental-health co-benefits of renewable energy development in China. The results show that developing renewable energy can avoid 0.6 million premature mortalities, 151 million morbidities, and 111 million work-loss days in 2050.
The demand for solar energy as a clean way to power human lives is increasing, but solar panels are land-intensive and may compete for space with farms. In this article, the authors examine how agrivoltaics (combining farming and solar technologies) can provide synergistic benefits together rather than in isolation, showing positive benefits in climate mitigation, climate resilience, and land equivalent ratios. This contributes to SDGs 2 (ensuring the promotion of sustainable agriculture), 7 (harnessing sunlight to power society), and 13 (agrivoltaics as a way to combat climate change).
One of the important adverse impacts of climate change on human health is increases in allergic respiratory diseases such as allergic rhinitis and asthma.
This Health Policy paper supports SDGs 2, 3, and 13, by identifying and examining the debates that arose from the publication of the EAT–Lancet Commission, systematically examining how research has been directly influenced by the Commission, and synthesising identified research gaps to build a research agenda for healthy and sustainable food systems.
Not all humans have the same carbon footprint: luxury lifestyles are significantly worse for the planet. This One Earth Research Article explores how a 'luxury tax' with revenue recycled to address climate inequality (SDG 10) could accelerate decarbonization (SDG 13).
This One Earth Review Article discusses how the term 'phase out' has allowed various stakeholders to work towards more sustainable goals, most recently relevant to the 'phase out' goals for coal and fossil fuels (SDG 13).
Climate change is impacting the health of Western Australians.Temperature increases and air pollution are particularly problematic.Food and water security may be compromised. An urgent response is required.
This chapter advances UN SDG goal 12 and 13 by providing an overview and introduction to NETs
This chapter advances UN SDG goals 12 and 13 by providing a historical perspective of the warming effect of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, describes our growing understanding of climate change, the parallel development of Earth-system modeling capabilities, the Paris Agreement and the need to transition to nonfossil energy and the decarbonization of the global economy
