Many cities have integrated health co-benefits into their climate plans to address cost concerns and build multi-stakeholder support for resilient, net-zero transitions. While some studies have demonstrated that cities vary in how much they link health and climate, few have examined why this is the case. This study fills this gap by using 16...

Groundwater contamination has become a critical global challenge due to population growth, industrialization and climate variability, while in India it is further intensified by urbanization, over-extraction and heavy metal pollution. Accurate prediction of water quality is critical for the sustainable groundwater management. This research used...

The presentation examines the need for a paradigm shift from traditional national security to one that incorporates climate security as a fundamental component of human security. The study, based on field research in Sri Lanka, investigates how National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) can be restructured to explicitly address climate security concerns...

Municipal solid waste (MSW) management in developing countries largely relies on open dumping and minimal sanitary landfilling, contributing significantly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The waste management sector is a global concern due to its impact on climate change, with inefficient collection systems and improper disposal exacerbating...

This study explored the governance structure that supported the implementation of the European plastic circular economy by examining the relationships among legal requirements, technical standards, industrial practices, and digital infrastructure.

ASEAN member states are Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao DPR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and...

As more cities adopt resilient net-zero policies, local-level assessments of the current and future health impacts of warmer temperatures are becoming increasingly important. These assessments may be even more useful if they demonstrate how health impacts of different predicted temperatures vary across acclimatized/non-acclimatized groups. This...

経団連自然保護協議会は、企業における生物多様性保全への取組に関するアンケート調査を2011年から2019年にかけて、また直近では2023年2月から4月、2024年4月から6月にかけて実施した。2023年3月には日本の生物多様性国家戦略2023-2030が閣議決定され、またその後の2023年9月には、自然関連財務情報開示タスクフォース（TNFD: Task force on Nature- related Financial Disclosures）による、生物多様性・自然資本に関する財務情報開示の枠組(TNFD開示提案)が発表された。これらの国際・国内の動向を背景とする企業の取組の進捗や課題・解決策を把握することを目的に、2025年4月14日から6月17日にかけて、経団連企業会員1...
