This research identifies optimal passive retrofitting methods, such as adding insulation, to enhance the resilience of residential buildings and protect vulnerable communities from the safety risks posed by climate change-driven extreme weather events. By increasing he time a building maintains a safe temperature without external power, this approach helps societies adapt to an already warming world while reducing the energy demand that contributes to further temperature increase.

This chapter aligns with UN SDG Goals 6 and 13 by discussing advanced water treatment technologies and promoting sustainable water management and climate adaptation strategies.

This chapter aligns with SDG Goals 3 and 6 by focusing on removing pollutants from water systems to improve water quality.

This article links to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by addressing Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) and Goal 13 (Climate Action), as it highlights the significant greenhouse gas emissions associated with radiotherapy, a critical component of cancer treatment. By proposing strategies to reduce the environmental impact of oncology care through sustainable practices and treatment modifications, the study emphasizes the importance of integrating health care with climate action efforts to promote both patient well-being and environmental sustainability.
