UCL Open Environment (from UCL Press, University College London UK) publishes and showcases the latest and most critical research on all aspects of the Environment.
UCL Open Environment is a fully non-commercial, Open Science scholarly journal, publishing high impact, multi-disciplinary research, on real world environmental issues. UCL Open Environment removes publication barriers and transcends boundaries to bring together works from the most renowned researchers, alongside innovative and emerging new voices, policy makers and professionals.
The UCL Open Environment, UNFCCC/COP Special Series provides the opportunity to publish about key topics covered at COP28, whether focused on The Paris Agreement, Glasgow Climate Pact, the UN led Early Warnings for All Initiative, among others, to critique or contribute to current debates and policies. This can be presented as a full empirical research study, a commentary (such as recommendations or guidance), or a case study.
Submission is open to anyone, and we encourage contributions from researchers and professionals engaged in producing knowledge about the mitigation, adaptation, finance, and collaboration needed, to deploy solutions to deal with the many issues created by a warming planet. We especially welcome submissions from work done in collaboration with or led by non-academics or researchers. This open series will provide a free to read platform to record and disseminate the insights from the many researchers, professionals, and policy makers, engaged in climate change, that are currently poorly visible to researchers and practitioners.
