This paper argues that installed capacity, the primary metric of energy planning, is the main cause of the gap between projections and outcomes. It compares power densities (nuclear 50 MW/ha, wind 0.13 MW/ha, solar 0.04 MW/ha) and highlight…

Piotr Misztal

This study analyzes the impact of green monetary policy on the energy transition and price stability using panel data from 27 EU countries (2015-2022) with a VECM. It finds that higher long-term interest rates reduce green investment and in…

This study compares top-down (international treaties) and bottom-up (city/community) governance models for climate mitigation, using Ostrom's polycentric governance theory. It finds top-down offers legitimacy but suffers implementation gaps…

Emma Morrissey Gleeson, John Morrissey

This study examines how Irish primary school teachers conceptualize and enact climate change education (CCE). An online survey found that pedagogies fostering connection with nature are more prevalent than those promoting critical engagemen…

Mary Sanford, Žan Mlakar, E. Keith Smith +17

Using survey data from nine European countries (n=27,910), this study compares determinants of public support for climate mitigation vs. adaptation policies. Adaptation support is driven by perceived effectiveness, while mitigation support …

Ahmed Gazel, Stephen A. Roosa

As renewable energy scales up, end-of-life waste from solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries will surge by mid-century. This paper emphasizes the need to forecast waste volumes and develop reuse and recycling strategies to prevent envir…

Sunny Jubayer, Ziya Mohammad Sayef, Mahdi Muhammad +6

This paper assesses IoT-enabled robotic systems for enhancing efficiency in smart farming, with implications for sustainable agriculture and climate change mitigation. Specific findings are unclear due to missing abstract, but it likely add…
