Abstract Cities are globally exposed to climate change effects, which revealed that 55% of the world's population is at risk. Despite their low contribution global greenhouse gas emissions, African cities paying highest cost threats caused by due rapid urban community growth, high density, and inadequate planning. This review has explored demonstrated benefit Nature-based Solutions (NbS) implementation for crisis resilience have been implemented sharing information on sustainable city planning in Africa. The analysis based countries’ Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) reports, institution’s review, scientific articles. successful NbS since 2015 developed countries confirms a multi-functional environmental pre-urban populations. It reduces cities' vulnerability advances numerous Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) achievement. only 15 (27,7%) with 119 projects adapt tackle water, agriculture, forest woodland, coastal marine habitat, grassland, mountain habitat sectors. Rural areas paid more attention than despite urbanization face extreme effects. Furthermore, process observed some challenges translating approaches into measurable actions resilience: (i) issues governance policies; (ii) insufficient mobilization resources lack private sector involvement financing NbS; (iii) comprehensive evidence-based strategies knowledge operationalization cities.

Clarifying the linkage between renewable energy deployment and energy justice: Toward equitable sustainability

Sustainable Futures, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 8, С. 100236 - 100236

Опубликована: Июнь 17, 2024

The transition toward renewable energy includes a need for equitable outcomes, yet critical research gap exists in understanding the relationship between deployment and justice within International Energy Agency (IEA) member nations. This study addresses this by thoroughly examining influence of on across 23 IEA nations from 1995 to 2020. We employ advanced econometric techniques such as two-step system generalized method moment investigate linkage justice. By considering various dimensions justice, provides holistic assessment positive Significantly, we uncover that greater share substantially enhances levels, highlighting importance policies prioritizing social inclusion shedding light addressing gap, our contributes advancing knowledge These insights hold substantial implications policymakers, providing valuable guidance formulating strategies promote sustainable outcomes during transition.
