Chapter 1. Understanding green economy -- Chapter 2. From Stockholm 1972 to Stockholm 2022: fifty years later -- Chapter 3. The European Union's border carbon tax regulation and its possible effects on Turkey's exports in the short term -- Chapter 4. A spatial econometric analysis of the regional variations of residential energy consumption in Europe -- Chapter 5. Energy security dilemma in OECD countries: the COVID-19 pandemic, Russia-Ukraine War, and energy issues -- Chapter 6. Economy, environment, and sustainable development: a conceptual evaluation -- Chapter 7. The contribution of waste management social enterprises to the SDGs: exploring case study organisations from the global south -- Chapter 8. Systems engineering: driving green economy and renewable energy transitions -- Chapter 9. Tax carbon policy: momentum to accelerate Indonesia's sustainable economic growth towards green economy -- Chapter 10. Analysis of energy infrastructure for sustainable development: using game theory within the context of rational choices -- Chapter 11. Materials for phase change heat storage in scheffler reflectors: a sustainable and perceptive analysis of renewable energy -- Chapter 12. Engaging stakeholders for a sustainable future: catalysts of green economy and renewable energy transitions -- Chapter 13. Groundwater and pesticides: effects on health, the environment, and the relevance of environmental education in this scenario -- Chapter 14. Greenpreneurship pioneering solutions for climate change: an Indian perspective -- Chapter 15. A case study on a beacon of hope transition: India's renewable energy integration and the ujwal DISCOM assurance yojana (UDAY) -- Chapter 16. Green jobs in green transformation story.

"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. This monograph is an invaluable resource for policymakers, researchers, educators, and anyone who aspires to be a custodian of our planet's future."--
