Topic: Integrated Assessment of Climate and Environmental Policies for a Carbon-Neutral Future

Achieving carbon neutrality requires coordinated climate and environmental policies supported by rigorous assessments and evidence-based decision-making. Understanding the interactions among climate change, environmental protection, economic development, and low-carbon technologies is essential for strengthening global climate governance and advancing the transition toward a low-carbon future.

This Special Topic aims to present cutting-edge scientific research and practical case studies that evaluate climate and environmental policies, identify effective policy pathways, and support progress toward carbon neutrality. It welcomes interdisciplinary studies that provide insights into policy effectiveness, economic implications, technological innovation, and decision-support approaches, with the goal of informing policy development and implementation.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

● Assessment of climate change policies and their economic impacts;

● Environmental policy development and evaluation;

● Policy drivers and barriers to low-carbon technologies;

● Data-driven environmental decision-support systems;

● Integrated assessment of climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies.
