Middle East (EMME) region as a prominent climate change hotspot. While several initiatives …

The sustainability of life on Earth is under increasing threat due to human-induced climate
change. This perilous change in the Earth's climate is caused by increases in carbon dioxide …

Climate tip** points occur when change in a part of the climate system becomes self-
perpetuating beyond a warming threshold, leading to substantial Earth system impacts …

Rapid urban expansion has profound impacts on global biodiversity through habitat
conversion, degradation, fragmentation, and species extinction. However, how future urban …

The ongoing and projected impacts from human-induced climate change highlight the need
