Analysis of CO2 emissions in municipality Most pri Bratislave

Abstract

The most discussed topics in the 21st century at the global level include climate change, carbon neutrality, digitization and globalization. They have impact on the lives of all people, the quality of the environment in which we live, the health of the whole population, the development of cities and urban areas, the development and direction of industry and its new technologies, and last but not least, they shape humanity to which they are giving direction. Regional self-governments, as elementary elements of the state, therefore play a key role in achieving the EU’s environmental and climate change goals and objectives. The issue of digitization is changing human approaches to address global challenges, including the call for a proper assessment of the impacts of climate change on urban and suburban areas as a tool for identifying and subsequently integrating early actions. Digital technologies and their potential can make a huge contribution to sustainable development, and to re-addressing global challenges. According to the OECD, in an era of digitization, climate change and ageing, it is important to see cities as engines for economic growth.
