Women are under-represented in adaptation policy research and are more likely to emphasise justice topics
This paper is the first to analyse the role of women authors in fostering justice-relevant topics in climate adaptation research. As representation, citation and payment patterns remain gender-biased across scientific disciplines, we explore the case of climate science, particularly adaptation, as…

Quantifying the potential for climate change mitigation of consumption options
Abstract Background. Around two-thirds of global GHG emissions are directly and indirectly linked to household consumption, with a global average of about 6 tCO 2 eq/cap. The average per capita carbon footprint of North America and Europe amount to 13.4 and 7.5 tCO 2 eq/cap, respectively, while…

Systematic mapping of global research on climate and health: a machine learning review
BACKGROUND: The global literature on the links between climate change and human health is large, increasing exponentially, and it is no longer feasible to collate and synthesise using traditional systematic evidence mapping approaches. We aimed to use machine learning methods to systematically…

Mapping global research on climate and health using machine learning (a systematic evidence map) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]
Climate change is already affecting health in populations around the world, threatening to undermine the past 50 years of global gains in public health. Health is not only affected by climate change via many causal pathways, but also by the emissions that drive climate change and their…

PROTOCOL: Behavioral, information and monetary interventions to reduce energy consumption in households: A “living” systematic review
Abstract This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows: Our proposed systematic review and meta‐analysis will integrate the evidence available from all sources to answer the following questions: (1) to what extent can information, behavioral and monetary…

Machine learning map of climate policy literature reveals disparities between scientific attention, policy density, and emissions
Abstract Current climate mitigation policies are not sufficient to meet the Paris temperature target, and ramping up efforts will require rapid learning from the scientific literature on climate policies. This literature is vast and widely dispersed, as well as hard to define and categorise…

Behavioral, Information, and Monetary Interventions to Reduce Energy Consumption in Households: A Living Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Policymakers have little time left to prevent the worst impacts of climate change and limit global warming to well below two degrees. However, a systematic assessment of the available scientific evidence—that is up to date—is not always available to understand what climate policies work…

Systematic review and meta-analysis of ex-post evaluations on the effectiveness of carbon pricing
Abstract Today, more than 70 carbon pricing schemes have been implemented around the globe, but their contributions to emissions reductions remains a subject of heated debate in science and policy. Here we assess the effectiveness of carbon pricing in reducing emissions using a rigorous…

Demand-side solutions to climate change mitigation consistent with high levels of well-being
Evaluation of mitigation actions often focuses on cost and overlooks the direct effects on well-being. This work shows demand-side measures have large mitigation potential and beneficial effects on well-being outcomes.

Scientific literature on carbon dioxide removal revealed as much larger through AI-enhanced systematic mapping
Abstract Carbon dioxide removal plays an important role in any strategy to limit global warming to well below 2 °C. Keeping abreast with the scientific evidence using rigorous evidence synthesis methods is an important prerequisite for sustainably scaling these methods. Here, we use artificial…

The 2024 Europe report of the Lancet Countdown on health and climate change: unprecedented warming demands unprecedented action
Record-breaking temperatures were recorded across the globe in 2023. Without climate action, adverse climate-related health impacts are expected to worsen worldwide, affecting billions of people. Temperatures in Europe are warming at twice the rate of the global average, threatening the health of…

The effects on public health of climate change adaptation responses: a systematic review of evidence from low- and middle-income countries
Climate change adaptation responses are being developed and delivered in many parts of the world in the absence of detailed knowledge of their effects on public health. Here we present the results of a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature reporting the effects on health of climate change…

Reviewing the scope and thematic focus of 100 000 publications on energy consumption, services and social aspects of climate change: a big data approach to demand-side mitigation
As current action remains insufficient to meet the goals of the Paris agreement let alone to stabilize the climate, there is increasing hope that solutions related to demand, services and social aspects of climate change mitigation can close the gap. However, given these topics are not investigated…
