Aims and scope

The shifting to green and low-carbon economy is at the heart of carbon neutrality actions worldwide. Green and Low-Carbon Economy (GLCE) publishes significant original research that seeks to understand and address the economic challenges in transitioning to a carbon-neutral world. The journal aims to advance the understanding of how to achieve a green and low-carbon economy, its human and policy dimensions, and potential solutions. Our mission is to provide a single and leading platform to facilitate cross-disciplinary dialogue around the green and low-carbon economy research from the economy, social, environmental, management, and applied sciences that seek to answer questions like:

• The measurement, drivers, and mechanisms of green and low-carbon economy
• Barriers and strategies to green and low-carbon economy transition
• The social, political, and technological pathways for green and low-carbon economy

We particularly encourage studies with interdisciplinary interest. Researches focusing on all spatial, temporal, and socio-political scales will be considered. The journal is open to all relevant topics including but not limited to:

• Green and Low-Carbon Economy Transition
• Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation
• Environmental Degradation
• Renewable Energy Systems
• Natural Resources Management
• Costs and Efficiency
• Governance, Public Policy, and Social Behavior

In addition to publishing original research articles, Green and Low-Carbon Economy will publish Case studies, Reviews, and Perspectives, from across the full range of disciplines concerned with green and low-carbon economy.
