“…The EU's approach has been characterized by setting ambitious targets and developing comprehensive policy frameworks. One of the foundational steps was the adoption of the European Climate Change Program (ECCP) in 2000, which laid the groundwork for integrated climate policies [5][6][7][8]. Furthermore, the EU's commitment to the Kyoto Protocol and subsequent Paris Agreement underscored its role as a global leader in climate policy [1].…”

Climate change presents a pressing challenge to regional development, impacting economies, environments, and societies across the globe. Europe, with its diverse regions and commitment to sustainability, serves as a unique case study for exploring the integration of climate change strategies into regional policy and planning. The purpose of this study is to analyze the integration of climate change strategies into policy and planning for regional development in Europe, especially in Greece. Data was collected from 270 environmental experts across Greece using a questionnaire. The results highlight the significance of regional economic growth (gross regional product), infrastructure quality, educational attainment, and a conducive business environment as key measures of regional development. Opportunities arising from climate change strategy integration are explored, revealing economic benefits, environmental opportunities, social enhancements, and technological advancements. These opportunities not only mitigate climate change’s adverse impacts but also foster innovation, economic growth, and community resilience. Successful integration can position regions as global leaders in sustainability and innovation. Correlation and regression analyses reveal that opportunities for integration and common climate change strategies positively influence regional development, while barriers exhibit a counterintuitive positive relationship. However, several barriers hinder integration efforts, including institutional fragmentation, resource constraints, conflicting political and economic priorities, and insufficient stakeholder engagement. This study sheds light on the intricate relationship between climate change, policy integration, and regional development in Greece. It supports the potential for regions to drive sustainability and innovation while navigating the challenges of climate change, ultimately contributing to a more resilient and prosperous future.

“…Various researchers [11][12][13] have argued that stakeholders should have substantial input in structuring policy choices. Based on previous policy debates, however, it is clear that little input has been provided from users and consumers of DTC GT companies.…”

These results give insight into why individuals may support unrestricted access to their genomic information and confirm some of the motivations of users for purchasing DTC GT. Our analysis also brings to the forefront themes that have been raised less often in empirical studies involving motivations to purchase DTC GT services; these include the strongly held beliefs of some petitioners that, since they own their DNA, they should have the right to access the information without (further) government control or physician involvement. Interestingly, the comments left by petitioners also reveal a certain distrust of governmental agencies and healthcare professionals. This urges us to further study the public's views of these services and the potential impact of these views in order to responsibly address the ongoing debate on DTC GT.
