Energy, Environment and Climate Policy Analysis

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

The world is undergoing unprecedented transformations driven by rising carbon emissions, accelerating climate change, and rapid urbanization, all of which exert significant pressure on agriculture, energy systems, land use, and water resources. Under these circumstances, sustainable solutions are therefore urgently needed. In this Topic, we invite contributions addressing innovative practices in energy, environment, and climate policy analysis, including but not limited to agroecology, climate-smart agriculture, renewable energy integration, land conservation, and water management. Relevant submissions will examine, for example, policy frameworks, technological advancements, socio-economic impacts, and case studies demonstrating resilience and sustainability. Theoretical, empirical, and review papers that focus on actionable insights for policymakers, researchers, and practitioners are welcome.

This Topic aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue on holistic strategies for a resource-efficient and climate-resilient future to address the growing number of issues relating to resources, energy, and the environment.
