Abstract Background This article aims to provide an introduction emerging evidence and debate about the relationship between climate change mental health. Discussion Conclusion The authors argue that: i) direct impacts of such as extreme weather events will have significant health implications; ii) is already impacting on social, economic environmental determinants with most severe consequences being felt by disadvantaged communities populations; iii) understanding full extent long term...
National and global mitigation scenarios consistent with 1.5°C require an early phase-out of coal in major coal-dependent countries, compared to standard technical economic lifetimes. This appears particularly apparent the light recent massive investments power capacity, significant pipeline capacity coming online, as well upstream supporting infrastructure. article analyses existing planned capital stock sector 1.5°C. The political economy labour aspects this abrupt transition, domestic...
While the case for rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions is compelling, actions being taken by most senior decision makers (SDMs) government and business compound problem. Given systemic reach of much making, including decisions that constrain their own actions, there an urgent need to open up SDM black box.

A rapid coal phase-out is needed to meet the goals of Paris Agreement, but hindered by serious challenges ranging from vested interests risks social disruption. To understand how organize a global phase-out, it crucial go beyond cost-effective climate mitigation scenarios and learn experience previous transitions. Despite relevance topic, evidence remains fragmented throughout different research fields, not easily accessible. address this gap, paper provides systematic map comprehensive...
Abstract A rapid phase-out of unabated coal use is essential to limit global warming below 2 °C. This review presents a comprehensive assessment transitions in mitigation scenarios consistent with the Paris Agreement, using data from more than 1500 publicly available generated by 30 integrated models. Our ensemble analysis uses clustering techniques categorize transition pathways models and bridges evidence on technological learning innovation historical energy systems. Six key findings...

The gales of climate change blow the future open and closed. In response, we are having to learn live with a renewed notion limits novel level uncertainty. One emerging governance response is turn scenario planning, which generates narratives about multiple futures refracted out from present. Like itself, broader field studies it part of, historically socially positioned, belying its application as mere method or tool. This paper discusses growing planning within government adaptation...

Adapting to climate change is a new responsibility for state and local government. Yet there little clarity about what involved, beyond an expectation of acting in rational, informed manner. This paper presents study from Victoria, Australia into public servants' perceptions experiences using scenario techniques adaptation. It suggests that while development often positive those utilising scenarios directly ‘inform’ adaptation decision making more difficult. seems are valuable but awkward...
The rise of a community engagement movement offers range possibilities for universities to function as ‘sites citizenship’. These include contributing social and economic infrastructure, supporting equity diversity within higher education, education democratic citizenship.

A complex, whole-of-economy issue such as climate change demands an interdisciplinary, multi-sectoral response. However, evidence suggests that human health has remained elusive in its influence on the development of ambitious mitigation policies for many national governments, despite a recognition combustion fossil fuels results pervasive short- and long-term consequences. We use insights from literature political economy change, science–policy interface power policy-making, to...
