This editorial emphasizes the need for rigorous evidence synthesis to inform climate solutions decision-making. It argues that large-scale assessments like IPCC cannot cover all primary research, so systematic reviews and evidence gap maps …

Bahrul Ulum Rusydi, Baso Iwang, Radiatul Adwia

This study examines how GHG emissions mediate the relationships between energy consumption, exports, FDI, and economic growth in ASEAN-5 using panel data from 1991-2023. Results show energy consumption and FDI increase emissions, while expo…

Yang X.

This paper uses a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model to quantitatively assess the impacts of carbon neutrality policy portfolios (e.g., carbon pricing, subsidies, regulations) on the economy, environment, and residents' welfare. It …

This study analyzes the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions in Vietnam within the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) framework using 1990-2024 data and ARDL models. It finds bidirectional causality between the real effecti…

Suryati I.

This study examines mitigation strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from household activities in Medan, Indonesia. It likely identifies key emission sources and proposes actionable reduction measures for the residential sector.

Meiying Huang

This paper empirically examines the impact of China's ecological informatization supervision policy on corporate energy transition. Using a randomly sampled dataset, it shows that the policy promotes energy efficiency improvements and low-c…

Using U.S. household panel data, this study estimates demand for meat and plant-based alternatives. A carbon tax could cut beef consumption by 8-20% and dietary GHG emissions by up to 16%, while PBMA subsidies have negligible effects. Deman…

Yanlong Yin, Xiangnan Chai

This study examines the impact of China's low-carbon city pilot policy on the physical health of middle-aged and older adults using integrated macro-micro national data. It finds positive health effects with heterogeneous impacts across reg…
