Abstract

Nowadays, increased greenhouse gas emissions are contributing to climate change. The sudden global catastrophes raise concerns related to climate and limits to growth. The authors of “The limits to growth” warned about these changes occurring within 100 years. Global actions, such as the Paris Agreement, try to stop temperature increases not higher than 2 degrees. Eco-innovation can help to mitigate global climate changes. Unmitigated carbon emissions will lead to global warming of at least several degrees Celsius by 2100, resulting in high impacts of local, regional, and global risks to human society and natural ecosystems. The world’s most crucial climate gathering hosted by a leading oil producer has sparked outrage among environmentalists.
