This briefing describes progress made by the European Union and its Member States in reducing air pollutant emissions, as regulated by the National Emission reduction Commitments Directive (EU/2016/2284). It is based on data reported by EU Member States in 2025 for their 2023 emissions.

The Paris Agreement mandated high-greenhouse-emitting countries implement carbon pricing to accelerate emission reduction to cope with environmental challenges posed by climate change. We emphasized a research analysis of the reciprocal feedback mechanism between micro- and macro-economic...

Transport is the second-largest energy using sector in Vietnam and is projected to have the highest energy and emissions growth in future years. This paper explores options for decarbonising Vietnam's transport sector using a mixed-methods approach, including qualitative scenario design and...

Der Schienenverkehr in Deutschland fährt bereits heute zu einem Großteil elektrisch (~90% der Verkehrsleistung auf ~60% elektrifizierten Strecken). Für eine vollständige Defossilisierung sind jedoch auch für die verbliebenen 10% Fahrleistung Lösungen von Nöten. Aufgrund der lokalen...

This briefing describes progress made by the EU and its Member States towards reducing emissions of the five main air pollutants regulated under the National Emission reduction Commitments Directive. It assesses Member State performance against emission reduction commitments for 2020-2029, as...

Aufbauend auf dem Sozial-Ökologischen Panel (SÖP), das im BMBF-geförderten Projekt Eval-MAP etabliert wurde, verfolgte das Forschungsvorhaben Eval-MAP II zwei Ziele: Erstens wurden unter-schiedliche Anpassungs- und Emissions-Vermeidungsmaßnahmen in ihrer Akzeptanz und Wirkung auf die...

All decisions, including investing in energy transition projects, should satisfy the preferences of the owners. Yet owners of public firms have potentially contrasting preferences for emission reduction, value, and risk. For managers as agents of the owners, satisfying all tastes would be...

The implementation of a carbon pricing policy to comply with GHG emission targets faces opposition in small economies. An integrated modeling exercise was carried out for Israel to assess the cost-effectiveness of GHG emission reduction options. Alternative policies in terms of carbon pricing...

Global climate change, exacerbated by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, notably carbon dioxide (CO2), provides a huge danger to lives, the global environment, and development. The current study explored the dynamic effects of economic growth, fossil fuel energy consumption, renewable energy...

This study investigated the dynamic effects of economic growth, renewable energy consumption, urbanization, industrialization, tourism, agricultural productivity, and forest area on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in Chile. Using the dynamic ordinary least squares (DOLS) approach, time series...

In 2019, production on federal lands comprised 40% of domestic coal, 22% of domestic oil, and 12% of domestic natural gas production. Currently, the federal fossil fuel leasing program does not consider the climate costs of burning federal fossil fuels. One way to do so is through a climate...

The Yangtze River Economic Belt (YEB) and the Yellow River Ecological Economic Belt (YREB) surround the two biggest inland rivers and emit the greatest amount of carbon emissions in China. In order to implement China's dual carbon goal, this research applies a Meta-frontier DN-DEA model,...

The growing population and climatic uncertainties have compelled producers to undertake faster exploitation of the resources in agricultural production to meet global food security, which, in turn, leads towards unsustainable and input-led inefficient production growth. The problem is further...
