Green Economy and Renewable Energy Transitions for Sustainable Development

The fate of our planet hangs in the balance, making the pursuit of sustainable development more than a mere aspiration, it is an imperative.Green Economy and Renewable Energy Transitions for Sustainable Development delves deep into the intricate web of interconnections between the environment, green economies, and energy transitions, and lays down the intellectual foundation for a sustainable future. Drawing on the wisdom of experts in fields ranging from environmental science to policy analysis, this book unveils the multifaceted strategies needed to reduce pollution, conserve biodiversity, and effectively mitigate the relentless march of climate change. Central to sustainability is a green economy?a holistic economic system that transcends profit margins to prioritize social equity, ecological balance, and robust economic growth. Through rigorous exploration and analysis, this volume showcases how sustainable production and consumption practices and judicious investments in renewable energy sources can catalyze a transformative shift towards a more sustainable global economy. The energy transition, a substantial shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, emerges as the linchpin of our battle against climate change. This book deciphers the intricate dance of policies, technologies, and behavioral changes required to usher in this transition. It reveals how renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower hold the key to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and staving off the catastrophic consequences of global warming. From curriculum design and innovation toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to the pivotal role of smart governance and technological innovation, this book offers a nuanced perspective on how these elements synergize to shape a sustainable future. With a commitment to the SDGs, this book illuminates the path forward. It delineates the critical role of educational software and serious games in nurturing the next generation of sustainability champions and explores the symbiotic relationship between universities and industries in achieving these global objectives. This monograph is an invaluable resource for policymakers, researchers, educators, and anyone who aspires to be a custodian of our planet’s future.
