Economic strategies for adapting/mitigating climate change, such as strategies that address specific sustainability issues, such as climate change, food, water, renewable energy/clean technology, and agriculture. Could be considered as an investment approach where environmental, social, or governance factors, in combination with financial considerations, guide investment selection and management.
Introduction
Climate change affects the environment, human health, access to decent work and education, and the decrease in the quantity and quality of water, in addition to being a risk for the issue of food security, where measures that seek to mitigate/adaptation should be considered as an emergency.
