This report supports SDGs 3 and 13 by examining the health effects of climate change globally. It notes the severe harms and health risks being caused by climate change around the world, such as increased extreme weather events, heatwaves, spread of infectious diseases, and threats to food security. It notes the critical need for long-term emissions reduction policies, with a move away from fossil fuels to clean energy sources.
This Article supports SDGs 3 and 13 by using credible climate and population projections to estimate future heatwave-attributable deaths under different emission scenarios and to explore the drivers underlying these patterns of changes in China.
To achieve SDG 13 (Climate action), urban areas must reduce energy use and transition to greener energy sources. This One Earth Research Article shows how innovative photovoltaic windows could contribute, especially in buildings with lots of windows. The work also supports supports sustainable industrialization and innovation (SDG 9) and affordable clean energy (SDG 7).
Bay of Bengal (BoB) has immense significance with respect to ecological diversity and natural resources. Studies on microbial profiling and their functional significance at sediment level of BoB remain poorly represented. Herein, we describe the microbial diversity and metabolic potentials of BOB deep-sea sediment samples by subjecting the metagenomes to Nanopore sequencing.
Climate justice and health education can address the disproportionate health impacts of climate change on minoritized communities by providing frameworks to build awareness and instigate action on climate-related health inequities.

This chapter advances the UN SDG goals 9 and 13 by discussing the potential of AI tools to develop mitigation strategies to battle climate change in energy, land use, disaster response, and other sectors.
This article supports SDG 13 by demonstrating the climate change mitigation potential of different land-based options and highlighting the importance of analyzing their implications for biodiversity and other ecosystem services to support the design of solutions that can co-deliver for multiple challenges.
Food insecurity is a significant public health problem for Indigenous peoples in Canada.
The annual UN Climate Change Conference advances climate talks, mobilizes action, and can provide a significant opportunity to look at the impacts of climate change as well as innovation and solutions globally. Elsevier is pleased to showcase a large number of freely accessible journal articles and book chapters to help advance research and action against climate change, as well as a podcast episode, in support of COP27.
