Abstract

This summary discusses the importance of local governments in addressing climate change and highlights the factors that drive local climate policies. It emphasizes the need for policy evaluation, learning, and collaboration to improve the effectiveness of local climate policies. The research findings suggest that local communities play an active role in climate change mitigation, but this participation is influenced by socioeconomic factors and political orientations. The text concludes by calling for more research and diverse perspectives to develop universal theories and practices for local climate policies, including in remote areas.
