• Climate-related technologies and transitions are covered, among them geoengineering, solar radiation modification, negative emissions and carbon dioxide removal.气候相关技术与转型在覆盖范围内，包括地球工程、太阳辐射干预、负排放与二氧化碳去除。
• Adaptation policy, impact assessment and vulnerability analysis form a core strand, together with the challenges of a just transition.适应政策、影响评估与脆弱性分析构成核心板块，并与公正转型的挑战并列。
• Mitigation strategies are examined alongside carbon pricing and other policy instruments, and through economic analysis and integrated assessment of decarbonisation pathways.减缓策略与碳定价及其他政策工具一并考察，并通过经济分析与脱碳路径的综合评估展开。
• Climate risk in finance and investment, sustainable and green finance, and the business and economic implications of climate change are explicitly in scope.金融与投资中的气候风险、可持续与绿色金融，以及气候变化对商业与经济的影响，明确属于收稿范围。
• Human health and well-being, urban development and climate resilience, and the nature-climate nexus with nature-based solutions are treated as connected themes.人类健康与福祉、城市发展与气候韧性，以及自然与气候的关联和基于自然的解决方案，被视为相互关联的主题。
• Climate and development interactions, including links to poverty, and the politics and governance of climate action complete the remit.气候与发展的互动（包括与贫困的关联），以及气候行动的政治与治理，构成本刊范围的其余部分。

History
