Abstract

Cities must address climate change, and there is a need for a long-term, cross disciplinary studies to reduce carbon emissions and urban risks from global warming. Setting the agenda and six research priorities in the latest issue of Nature are Dr. Shobhakar Dhakal and 10 other leading scientists who have co authored an article of Six research priorities for cities and climate change. The 1 March 2018 issue of the prestigious journal Nature, which has published this piece is set against the backdrop of the IPCC Cities and Climate Change Science Conference, being held in Edmonton, Canada, from 5-8 March 2018. IPCC and nine global partners will bring together some 700 researchers, policymakers and practitioners from 80 countries, where participants will establish a global research agenda that will inform the IPCC special report on cities, says Dr. Shobhakar, who is the Head of Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Change, at AIT.
