This article advances SDG # 3, 8, 10, 13 and 16. The study from authors in Ghana detail the effects of climate change on workers’ health and productivity, especially those in lower income jobs and without policy or regulatory protections. It demonstrates that climate change affects both health and ability to work, with potentially serious humanitarian and economic consequences.
Despite increasing attention to the mental health impacts of climate change, an absence of a clear, cross-sectoral agenda for action has held back progress against the dual and interconnected challenges of supporting human and planetary health. This study aims to serve as an essential first step to address this gap.
Halting global warming (SDG 13) requires at minimum achieving net-zero GHG emissions; keeping warming under 2C or 1.5C requires reaching net-zero emissions before the GHG levels exceed concentrations compatible with those temperature targets. This One Earth research article models how countries working in their own self-interest might collaborate to reach those agreed upon goals.
Shows how practical economic levers can make the shipping industry more environmentally sustainable.
This study evaluates the relationship between the road network and deforestation and other negative impacts on indigenous people in Brazil.

This study evaluates climate change impacts on U.S. agriculture using process-based and econometric models.
Castellanos-Barliza and León-Peláez 2023 investigated the recovery of physical-chemical and biological properties of Technosols in a chronosequence of drylands (over 7,10 and 21 years) in the El Cerrejón coal mine in Colombia. Their results showed significant improvements in soil properties, especially near the surface, with notable increases in soil N content and P solution after 7 years. Enhanced vegetation development over time contributed to higher soil organic matter, indicating successful rehabilitation and positive impacts of the restoration strategy in degraded mine spoils.
