“…Laporan tersebut mengatakan bahwa dengan bertambahnya penduduk dan tingginya aktivitas ekonomi yang kian berkembang setelah era revolusi industri merupakan kontributor utama dari meningkatnya emisi gas rumah kaca, sehingga berpotensi terjadinya fenomena perubahan iklim. Industrialisasi yang meningkat, menandakan terdapat aktivitas ekonomi yang tinggi serta penggunaan energi rumah tangga yang meningkat dan berpotensi secara signifikan terhadap meningkatnya suhu udara rata-rata atau terjadinya fenomena perubahan iklim (Ogbeide-Osaretin et al, 2022).…”

The phenomenon of climate change has become a special concern throughout the world. This research was conducted to look at the determining factors from a social and economic perspective that can influence climate change on the Island of Java and Sumatera. The research is used panel data with a total of 80 research data in the 2018-2022. The variables used in the research were Average of Air Temperature (TEMP), GRDP of Industrial Sector (ADHK), Population Density (KP), and Electrical Energy in Industrial Sector (ELECIND). The results of his research show that all independent variables such as GRDP of Industrial Sector, Population Density, and Electrical Energy in Industrial Sector have a significant and positive effect on the phenomenon of climate change on the Island of Java and Sumatera as viewed through the average of air temperature.

Social inequality impacts health, is aggravated by the consequences of climate change, and may be influenced by inappropriate policy responses. These interdependent effects create a self-perpetuating loop exacerbating the impact of climate dysregulation on health in an uncontrolled and poorly understood way. Holistic approaches to public health such as One Health, EcoHealth or Planetary Health are well suited to tackling the considerable and complex environmental and social issues underlying climate dysregulation. However, the extent to which research using such frameworks investigates social determinants of health is not clear. In this paper we discuss the ways in which the social environment has so far been considered in the literature to problematize and analyze the relationship between climate dysregulation and health within holistic frameworks and provide tools and recommendations to facilitate their apprehension. Social factors are investigated empirically only in a minor fraction of studies addressing the relation between climate and health in holistic frameworks, and not systematically. Barriers to such approaches are discussed. This work also provides two analytical tools (a process diagram and a knowledge framework) and a set of recommendations to help include the social environment more meaningfully in such frameworks. They are meant to facilitate our understanding of the current status of this type of research and to encourage trans-disciplinary and trans-sectorial endeavors towards directions which need to be taken to ensure societal factors and inequalities are placed at the center of research on climate and health and the ensuing policy response.

Climate change stands as the paramount challenge of our era, characterized by intricate and ever-evolving dynamics. While considerable attention has been dedicated to examining the impact of climate change on financial stability and economic productivity, there has been comparatively less emphasis placed on exploring the income inequality impacts of climate change. This paper provides a detailed empirical analysis of how climate change impacts income inequality in 43 countries most vulnerable to climate change, 39 most unequal countries in terms of income distribution and India separately, spanning the period from 1971 to 2021. The research utilizes different climate change datasets to check the effects of particular aspects of climate change and deploys a standard panel regression analysis followed by a series of robustness checks to confirm the soundness of the results, and autoregressive distributed lag bounds test approach to analyse the link for India. In general, our empirical analysis concludes that climate change, quantified by three different indices, has deleterious effects on income distribution in both the groups and in the short- and long-run for India, after controlling for conventional determinants of income inequality, in line with existing theory and related studies. This conclusion is robust with alternative estimation techniques and sets of control variables. JEL Codes: D31, O10, O15, Q54
