IJGW的目標(biāo)是將所有學(xué)科結(jié)合起來，為當(dāng)?shù)?全球應(yīng)對全球變暖及其后果提供解決方案。它集中于九個主要支柱:更好的修復(fù)、避免、效率、成本效益、設(shè)計(jì)、資源利用、環(huán)境質(zhì)量、能源安全和可持續(xù)發(fā)展。它還討論了作為氣候變化的直接/間接結(jié)果而引起的與全球變化有關(guān)的問題和適應(yīng)這些變化的戰(zhàn)略。IJGW涵蓋了工程、氣候科學(xué)、生態(tài)學(xué)、經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)、教育學(xué)、管理學(xué)、信息科學(xué)、政治學(xué)、戰(zhàn)略發(fā)展等多個學(xué)科。

IJGW aims to bring all disciplines together for local/global solutions to combat global warming and its consequences. It focuses around nine main pillars: better remediation, avoidance, efficiency, cost effectiveness, design, resource utilisation, environmental quality, energy security, and sustainable development. It also address issues related to global changes as a direct/indirect result of climate modification and strategies for adaptation to such changes. IJGW covers disciplines as diverse as engineering, climate science, ecology, economics, education, management, information sciences, politics, strategy development, etc.
