Preface

Greetings from the Journal of Environment,

Urbanization and Climate

limate change, which affects a wide range of areas, from land
Cto air, water to living beings, plants to mines, underground to
atmosphere, is no longer a scientific topic, but has become everyone’s
priority with its evident effect on economy, politics, law, energy,
tourism, forestry, water resources, agriculture and livestock breeding,
food safety, population increase, migration, urbanization, health,
technology, ecology, and many more areas.

For this reason, frequently faced aspects with a dominant effect in
the aforementioned areas such as disasters and disaster management,
risks and risk mitigation, adaptation, awareness, sustainability require
many different scenarios, projections and models and necessary
measurements for development and social decisions.

There are various institutions, academic cycles and many non-
governmental organizations that monitor climate change and try to
take action. However, it shouldn’t be forgotten that a global-scale
problem needs a global-scale solution.
It is of critical importance to be prepared for climate-based crises,
understand their causes and effects, mitigate their risks, adapt socially,
financially, and ecologically to new climatic conditions, and raise
awareness about climate crisis. For this reason, there seems to be an
undeniable need for sufficient research combining various approaches
from different disciplines to increase information in academic,
institutional and social context and to inform politics, strategies and
actions.
