Balancing economic growth with social equity and environmental sustainability has become one of the defining challenges of our time. Climate change, resource depletion, and widening inequalities highlight the urgent need for policies that foster development without exacerbating global crises. Advancements in technology, renewable energy, and corporate responsibility present opportunities to create more resilient and equitable systems, while international cooperation remains crucial to addressing shared risks. Understanding these dynamics is essential for shaping a future where prosperity does not come at the expense of social justice or environmental stability. Economic Growth Amidst Social and Environmental Uncertainty examines the complex interplay between economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social equity in the face of global crises. It brings together interdisciplinary perspectives, case studies, and policy analyses to explore pathways toward more just, innovative, and sustainable development. Covering topics such as climate change, financial risk tolerance, and sustainable development, this book is an excellent resource for policymakers, government officials, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), advocacy groups, business leaders, academicians, and more.
