The Cambridge Journal of Climate Research

Aims

The Journal is dedicated to publishing works from all domains of study, provided that the content of the piece has a significant bearing on the study of the climate or of climate change. To this end, it carries an ethos that is—                
- expressly open to diverse and novel ways of thinking;        
- reflective upon and critical of a conventional vision;        
- relevant to both theoretical and practical matters.    

Scope

The Journal covers the full extent of climate-related research, with a substantively global approach, including but not limited to—
- climate law and litigation, comparative legal analysis;    
- climate policy and regulation, both domestic and international;    
- climate politics, governance, diplomacy and institutional philosophy;    
- climate finance and environmental economics;    
- climate psychology and behavioural science;    
- climate-related area and strategic studies;    
- climate-related architectural and built environment research;    
- climate-related sociological and anthropological studies;    
- climate-related artistic, literary, and historical research;    
- climate science, including zoology, geochemistry, and geophysics;    
- climate engineering, including climate repair approaches;    
- climate-related energy studies, especially renewables research;    
- the study of national and transnational climate organisations;    
- the study of technological and digital infrastructure and the climate.
