Sustainable Environmental Sciences (SES) and climate change have emerged as relatively new subjects in sustainability that have garnered increasing attention from academics in recent years. This study aims to delve deeper into the implications of SES in climate change mitigation to support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). A systematic review method combined with bibliometric analysis was employed to comprehensively uncover the evolution of scientific studies. Data utilized encompassed publications from 2019 to 2023 sourced from three databases: Dimensions, Lens, and Scopus. Findings reveal a significant increase in research on SES over the past five years. The most prolific authors in SES research were identified as Horton, R.C. in the Dimensions database, Ciais, P. in the Lens database, and Meena, R.S. in the Scopus database. The United States and China emerged as the countries with the highest contributions to SES research. The most significant contributions from SES and Climate Change research to SDGs in the past five years were observed in SDG-13, SDG-7, and SDG-15 indicators. This study highlights the emerging domain of SES and its crucial involvement in mitigating climate change, emphasizing its essential role in advancing SDGs.
