| Abstract |
"From rising sea levels and extreme weather events to food insecurity and forced migration, the climate change effects are real and accelerating. The book Climate Change and Sustainable Development offers a comprehensive compilation of contemporary research, covering both fundamental and advanced aspects of climate science. It delves into a wide range of critical topics, including the greenhouse effect, food security, social and environmental issues, threats to marine ecosystems, the role of green energy in reducing carbon emissions, life cycle assessments, cost-effective sustainable strategies, public health implications, carbon capture technologies, and climate adaptation strategies. Key Features: Explores both fundamental and advanced topics such as the greenhouse effect, carbon footprint reduction, public health responses and adaptation strategies. Integrates insights from environmental science, economics, agriculture, sociology, and earth sciences to provide a holistic understanding. Includes the latest findings and case studies, ensuring up-to-date knowledge aligned with global sustainability goals. Structured for easy understanding, making it suitable for students, researchers, educators, and professionals alike. Emphasizes actionable strategies for mitigation, adaptation, and innovation in sustainable development. This volume is especially valuable for scientists, academics, students, educators, and professionals across diverse disciplines such as environmental science, agriculture, earth science, economics, sociology, geology. By addressing every key element related to climate change, the book equips readers with a clear understanding of its causes, consequences, and the broader implications for human society. The aim of this book is to inform, inspire, and empower readers-from policymakers and researchers to students and concerned citizens.
