Climate change remains one of the defining challenges of our time, with the UN warning that global temperatures are likely to exceed 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels within the next decade unless

International Day for Biological Diversity 2026, celebrated under the theme “Acting locally for global impact”, highlights how local actions and community-led efforts can drive meaningful global pr

This cutting-edge engineering study proposes innovative symbiosis between data centers and wastewater treatment plants (using treated effluent for cooling and heat recovery), demonstrating how emerging AI infrastructure can dramatically lower its carbon footprint (estimated annual reduction of ~84 Mt CO? eq) while addressing water stress—providing a practical technological solution for climate mitigation in a rapidly growing sector.

Introduction: Healthcare systems are responding to the immediate and long-term impacts of climate change by providing care, and implementing carbon reduction initiatives.

Introduction: Climate change poses a growing global health threat, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) with fragile health systems and limited adaptive capacity.

This article reviews climate-smart forestry (CSF) as an integrated approach that combines climate mitigation and adaptation strategies in forest management while balancing ecological, economic, and social objectives. It examines key implementation strategies, policy frameworks, and challenges in adopting CSF practices globally to enhance forest resilience and carbon sequestration.

The paper finds that managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is a promising strategy for sustainable groundwater management but is not clearly addressed within existing EU water policies, creating legal and administrative barriers. It recommends policy reforms to explicitly recognize MAR, harmonize regulations, and improve monitoring, licensing, and the use of reclaimed water across Member States.

The UN Conference on the Human Environment 1972 in Stockholm marked the beginning of a global awareness of the interdependence between people, other living species and our planet, as well as the es

The authors analyzed the effects of PM2.5 particles on human cell cytotoxicity by collecting water-soluble extracts from 62 PM2.5 particles. Although, the samples were collected during the high and low pollution period, clear relation between the cytotoxicity in six types of human cells and severe air pollution was observed.

This study examines the consistency of Korea’s clean energy policies with Paris-compliant trajectories derived from the IPCC AR6 scenario database.
