Most people around the world have felt the effects of climate change on their quality of life. This study sought to achieve the maximum efficiency for climate change actions with the minimum negative impact on the well-being of countries and cities. The Climate Change and Country Success (CS) and Climate Change and Cities' Quality of Life (CQL) models and maps of the world created as part of this research showed that as economic, social, political, cultural, and environmental metrics of countries and cities improve, so do their climate change indicators. For the 14 climate change indicators, the CS and CQL models indicated 68.8% average dispersion dimensions in the case of countries and 52.8% in the case of cities. Our research showed that increases in the success of 169 countries saw improvements in 9 climate change indicators out of the 12 considered. Improvements in country success indicators were accompanied by a 71% improvement in climate change metrics.
世界上大多数人都感受到了气候变化对生活质量的影响。本研究旨在以对国家和城市福祉的最小负面影响为代价,实现气候变化行动的最大效率。作为这项研究的一部分创建的气候变化与国家成功 (CS) 和气候变化与城市生活质量 (CQL) 模型和世界地图表明,随着国家和城市的经济、社会、政治、文化和环境指标的改善,其气候变化指标也会得到改善。对于 14 项气候变化指标,CS 和 CQL 模型分别在国家层面和城市层面显示出 68.8%和 52.8%的平均离散维度。我们的研究表明,在 169 个国家中,成功指数的提高导致 12 项考虑因素中的 9 项气候变化指标得到改善。国家成功指标的改善伴随着气候变化指标提高 71%。
