Transformative Technologies and Innovation in Climate Change Mitigation and Sustainable Environmental Stewardship. A Systematic Literature Review.

Abstract

This systematic literature review bears the objective of exploring the transformative potential of transformative technologies and innovations in climate change mitigation and environmental stewardship. The study provides an overview of the current research trends, practical implications, and implementation of transformative technology and innovation between 2018 and 2024. The methodology entailed a comprehensive search of scholarly databases resulting in the selection and analysis of the relevant studies. The findings reveal that transformative technology and innovations in mitigating climate change play a significant role in ensuring environmental stewardship and sustainability as they lower greenhouse gas emissions, reduce pollution levels, and ensure a strategic balance between profit, people, and environmental consideration in relation to natural resources exploitation. Additionally, it provides for a discussion on the benefits as well as challenges associated with the adoption of transformative technology and innovation to mitigate climate change such as cost implications. The review concludes with recommendations for future research and practical implications for the regulators and industry players.
