Global warming mainly caused by anthropogenic emissions affects the well-being of inhabitants around the world, in which carbon emissions of energy generation and heating from fossil fuels are the largest sources of carbon emissions on this planet. In this regard, many countries put forward net-zero-emissions goals. However, emission reduction implies that the economy is damaged to a large extent in developing countries. It is necessary to be a balance between sustainable economic growth and emission reduction. As an essential tool to investigate interactions among policy, energy-environment, climate, and economy, economic models have been widely employed to solve problems.
This Research Topic aims to address advances in climate change and energy-environment connections based on modern environmental governance system. We are particularly interested in applied studies that provide insightful information to facilitate climate actions related to energy and other behavior changes to mitigate climate change, adapt climate, and promote sustainable economic development. Authors can adopt any types of models to analyze any policy and environmental governance with climate change at multiple geographic levels, including policy analysis, socio-economic effects, energy-environment, climate scenario analysis, integrated assessments, and macroeconomic models.
Specific themes for the Research Topic include, but are not limited to:
• Multi-modeling comparison on interactions among energy, economy, and climate
• Advance modeling approaches to better evaluate climate adaption and mitigation
• Socio-economic impacts of climate change, energy-environment, and green finance
• Integrated assessments of energy underlining climate adaption and mitigation
• Climate policy evaluation of energy-environment and/or sustainability
• Scenario analysis of energy-related climate adaption and mitigation
