In this study, the authors examine how background climatic condition and urban morphology can influence urban heat island effects.
This study estimates heat- and cold-related excess deaths over 60 years in China, showing that Heat-related mortality has increased sharply during the last two decades and social-economic development contributes to adaptability.
This article presents an exploratory global ‘Decarbonization Divergence’ sustainability scenario. This scenario depicts an economy that decarbonizes through technological development despite further growth, while households do not contribute to such decarbonization efforts through lifestyle change, leading to divergent developments between the economy and households.
The objective of the meta-analysis is to identify impacts on various sectors, adaptation strategies, and the challenges of climate change in the Ethiopian context.
This multi-city, multi-country One Earth Research Article shows that Paris Agreement-aligned climate action (SDG 13) is needed to avoid increasing ozone-related* deaths (SDG 3) because greener energy production is also cleaner pollution-wise. These actions will help make cities and communities more sustainable (SDG 11).
*Some greenhouse gases, and many co-emitted pollutants from fossil-fuel burning, contribute to ozone production near ground level where it is a harmful pollutant.
This study investigates the factors that influence travelers' intentions toward animal ethics in tourism and makes a significant contribution to methodological approaches and the body of knowledge in animal ethics in tourism.
This chapter advances the UN SDG goals 9 and 11 by exploring the potential of AI tools to promote smart civil engineering.
The concept of a seawater hub signifies a substantial stride toward sustainable and environmentally conscious seawater desalination solutions. It holds the potential to transform seawater treatment and ensure a consistent freshwater supply for communities globally.
This chapter aligns with Goals 9, 11, and 13 by focusing on the use of renewable and recyclable materials, as well as adoption of methods to reduce energy consumption and waste.
