Abstract

The era of information technology is now. People's lifestyles have changed as a result. Seldom is there an aspect of human existence that is unaffected by information technology. Numerous technological trends are expanding quickly, including social media, cloud computing, mobile computing, and ubiquitous computing. Every facet of environmental research has already included Internet and communication technology (ICT) techniques. Research trends and advancements in ICT help understand how ICT emerged and how it may play a role in climate change in the future. This study used network visualization, bibliometric indicators, and the Scopus database to evaluate ICT solutions in climate change research trends. Climate change poses a threat to global people' quality of life, access to essential services, economic gains, social and economic progress, and increased susceptibility. The planet is rapidly approaching the environmental "tipping point," according to recent UN data. A shift toward a circular economy (CE) is urgently needed, and information and communication technologies (ICTs) have some promise in addressing the world's most severe climate challenges. ICTs can be used as tools for both mitigating and adapting to climate change as well as for monitoring it. Emissions and solid waste from other (non-ICT) sectors of the economy can be reduced by ICTs because their primary output is information rather than tangible commodities, a phenomenon frequently referred to as "dematerialization." This paper will talk about. Emerging Trends in ICT and Global Warming.
