Abstract :
Climate change represents one of the most pressing global challenges of the 21st century, with far-reaching
implications for economies, ecosystems, and societies. This paper examines the intersection of environmental economics and
climate change, focusing on economic impacts, policy responses, and sustainable development strategies. It highlights the
role of market-based instruments, cost-benefit analysis, and climate finance in addressing environmental degradation. The
study also explores the disproportionate impact on developing countries and emphasizes the need for integrated mitigation
and adaptation policies. The paper concludes with policy recommendations aimed at achieving economic growth while
ensuring environmental sustainability.
