Free Download Climate Finance & Accountability: A Comprehensive And Holistic Approach
English | 2026 | ISBN: 9819821789 | 299 Pages | PDF (True) | 8 MB
This book offers a comprehensive, practice-oriented examination of the emerging field of climate finance, with a particular focus on implementing the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations. It explores how companies assess, manage, disclose, and respond to climate-related risks and opportunities. Through eight chapters, it provides an evidence-based analysis of disclosure practices, market pricing of climate risk, ESG integration strategies, and regulatory developments across various jurisdictions, drawing on international research and case studies. The 2018 IPCC Special Report emphasized that limiting global warming to 1.5°C is vital to avoid irreversible environmental and economic impacts. Climate change risks, both physical and regulatory, pose significant threats to corporations, investors, and global financial stability. Extreme weather events disrupt supply chains and asset values, while carbon-intensive industries face business viability challenges. In response, the TCFD issued recommendations in 2017 to guide firms in providing transparent climate-related financial information. While these have gained support from investors and regulators - such as Canada's TCFD-aligned disclosure under the LEEFF - adoption remains inconsistent, and integrating climate risk into financial decision-making is still evolving. The book aims to enhance the quality and comparability of climate-related disclosures and support informed, sustainable investment decisions.

Climate change and its mitigation has become one of the most pressing challenges facing our societies. Shocks and phenomena related to climate change cause important economic losses due to damages to property infrastructure, disruptions to supply chains, lower productivity, and migration. Climate Economics and Finance offers a comprehensive analysis of how climate change impacts the economy and financial systems. Focusing on the monetary and financial implications of climate change, it addresses critical yet often overlooked areas such as greenflation, public and private financing of the transition process, and the challenges faced by central banks and supervisors in preventing and managing associated risks. It delves into the challenges that emerging and developing economies face in accessing climate finance, highlighting innovative financial and de-risking solutions. Synthesizing state-of-the-art research and ongoing policy discussions, this book offers a clear and accessible entry point into the intersection of climate and finance.

Free Download Climate Change and Carbon Markets: Late or Too Late?
English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032076188 | 289 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 31 MB
This book offers an accessible introduction to climate change science and a comprehensive description and assessment of market and financial tools to combat the effects of climate change. The opening three chapters focus upon science. Chapter One is devoted to understanding the basics of climatology and the scenarios forecast by scientists contributing to the UN's Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Chapter Two focuses upon the alternative pathways to meeting the Paris Agreement goals as discerned by the over 700 scientists contributing to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Chapter 3 is a highly critical analysis of how different schools of economists have used a 'damage function' to estimate the long-term costs of climate change, and more recent attempts to recognise the value of nature as an environmental benefit for future generations. Chapters 4-6 examine policies to combat climate change. Chapter 4 looks in some depth at public policies adopted by leading economies, covering China, the EU, India, Singapore, the UK and the USA. The role of a carbon tax and alternatives are examined. Chapter 5 is devoted to a history and analysis of the voluntary carbon market (VCM) sector and the role of carbon credits. It not only highlights the weaknesses, but examines the possibility that public sector regulation could be used to increase the credibility of voluntary carbon market transactions. The chapter also examines the available technologies for carbon dioxide removal. Chapter 6 is devoted to 'green finance' and provides a critical review of the UN model that relies upon public capital catalysing private investment in green projects, a model that is failing the Global South where the majority of Green House Gases (GHG) actually arise. Globally, there is an annual green finance gap of over USD1 trillion. Chapter 7 concludes with an assessment of where present policies fall short, notwithstanding the withdrawal of the USA for the Paris Agreement, and in particular places emphasis on the need to combat GHG emissions where they most frequently occur, in the Global South. The author calls for the creation of an International Green Bank, issuing green bonds supported by the world's leading economies, with China and India playing leading roles, and with an exclusive focus on emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs) before it is too late.

Free Download Chromium Toxicity: Challenges and Solutions
English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032143225 | 347 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 27 MB
Chromium is widely used in many industrial processes, including metallurgy, printing, dyeing, tanning, and electroplating. However, effluents of these companies pollute the environment when they are not properly disposed of. This causes tissue damage and has deadly effects on humans, animals, plants, and the environment. It also has mutagenic, carcinogenic, and teratogenic effects. The two states of chromium that are most prevalent are trivalent (Cr (III)) and hexavalent (Cr (VI)). While trivalent chromium state is a valuable trace metal, and hexavalent state is non-essential and it causes dermatitis, lung cancer, stomach and kidney damage, as well as irritation of the eyes and respiratory tract. Chronic build-up of harmful chromium (VI) along food chains frequently results in biomagnification, which greatly increases the risk to human health. The amount of water needed for industrial purposes around the world has been growing exponentially. Water is an important resource, yet misuse of it and inadequate, delayed treatment frequently cause contamination and scarcity. It has been stated that a variety of water treatment techniques can remove harmful materials from bodies of water. These include enhanced oxidation techniques, membrane filtration, biological activated carbon, ion-exchange resins, biofiltration, and iminodiacetic acid-carbon nanotubes. Toxic heavy metal contaminants from wastewater have been studied using adsorption technologies such as covalent organic frameworks (COFs)-based materials, metal organic framework (MOF), porous geopolymers, biochar, chitosan-based adsorbents, 3D porous aerogels, agricultural and industrial wastes, nanomaterials, and biosorption. Bioremediation and phytoremediation, which use native microbes and plants, are an easy, affordable, and environmentally acceptable way to detoxify and remove Cr-pollutants in a variety of experimental situations. Microorganisms and plants deal with hazardous metals by enzymatic oxidation/reduction, biosorption, and bioaccumulation. The biosorption method with microbial biomass is one of the bioremediation procedures that is said to be easy, quick, affordable, efficient, and successful on an industrial scale. This volume contains three sections. The origins and dispersion of chromium in soil, water, and plant ecosystems are discussed in the first section. Health hazards associated with chromium poisoning are explained in the second section. The third section discusses methods for reducing chromium toxicity from the environment using multidisciplinary approaches in a sustainable manner. The edited volume addresses the issues raised by the widespread chromium poisoning that has affected the world by bringing together a varied range of researchers in environmental science, sustainability, and health. The book clarifies this widespread environmental problem and suggests interdisciplinary alternatives for contaminant control.
