“…In the energy field, "resilience" refers to the positive side of the energy system when dealing with disturbances and shocks (Gatto and Drago, 2020;Reyers et al, 2022). As pointed out by UNISDR, resilience reflects the valuable quality shared by human society and nature (Molyneaux et al, 2016).…”

The normal operation of the energy system is related to the security and stability of the region and even the country. Compared with inland areas, islands can become a precedent for building a low-carbon and zero-carbon society due to geographic advantage. However, they also have to deal with more vulnerable energy systems. Taking Chongming Island as a case, this paper discusses the necessity of energy transformation from external, internal, and geographic causes, investigates the possible path of resilient energy transformation for islands, and puts forward a series of policy recommendations together with possible ways toward resilient energy transition.

“…Depending on context, the collaboration of cities and companies will most likely need to draw upon multiple modes to transform science-based targets into impactful actions. Moreover, complex contexts require solutions that are tailored to context sensitivity 59 . Finally, leadership on both ends of cities and companies is needed to disrupt existing silos between these key actors, facilitating joint target setting, action, financing, reporting, and accountability on progress.…”

Cities and companies have great potential to reduce pressures on Earth system boundaries. Science-based target setting has emerged as a powerful vehicle, but its uptake is still limited. Moreover, cities and companies develop their targets separately even though many large cities and companies colocate. Focusing on the top emitting 200 cities and 500 companies, here we analyse the current state and potential of adopting science-based targets for climate. Of these key actors, 110 cities and 22 companies with science-based targets can eliminate up to 3.41 GtCO2eq of annual emissions. Further, we argue that if cities and companies keep abreast of ambitious target levels, then this reduction potential can increase up to 5.70 GtCO2eq with a factor of 1.7. We provide an illustrative roadmap with entry points and discuss the implications. Our findings elucidate a previously untapped potential for catalysing city-company collaborations to accelerate transformations for operating within Earth system boundaries.

“…Given our paper is not about the underlying capacities, we use strategies to infer the respective capacities that growers are trying to draw on or enhance. This approach moves beyond the conventional capitals focus, to one that better reflects complex system dynamics and outcomes (Reyers et al, 2022).…”
