Abstract

AbstractThis short communication contributes to the current debate by exploring bibliometric data related to green recovery policies to discover the thematic linkages driving sustainable transitions and how these linkages can be navigated to encourage a successful and rapid green transformation. Our discussion illuminated three main trajectories of recent research that deviate from pre-COVID-19 themes and trends: managing natural resources at multiple levels, technology science for raw material scarcity resolution, and advancing low-carbon policies with data-driven models. This study provides a robust evidence-based framework for policymakers as they design green stimulus packages that can effectively facilitate and give long-term support to a green recovery. Specifically, the results affirm the necessity of devising novel stimulative regulations, investing in the modification or supplement of existing infrastructure (e.g. energy storage and grid infrastructure for reliable use of renewable energy sources) and building cities that are more resource-efficient and climate-resilient. Finally, the study also underscores the advances made in related European Union legislation and identifies potential challenges associated with the green transition.
