This book examines the complex relationship between energy use, economic growth, and the environment, focusing on Argentina and its relevance to other Latin American countries and developing economies. It offers an interdisciplinary approach and policy recommendations to reconcile efforts to reduce, adapt, and mitigate climate change with sustainable development goals. Its interdisciplinary effort includes two chapters that lay on the intersection between Behavioral Science and climate change, highlighting the use of behavioral science to understand society's actions concerning climate change and how to reverse biases and promote more sustainable behaviors. The book also includes a unique contribution from undergraduate students, reflecting the growing demand of younger generations for intergenerational justice and concrete actions to protect the environment.With a broad audience in mind, including academics, researchers, policymakers, and the general publicinterested in climate change, energy, and sustainable development, this volume offers a distinctive perspective not found in other publications. All contributors to the book live and work in Argentina, providing valuable insights for social scientists in the region and others worldwide working on climate change, energy transition, and sustainable development.
