Green job creation is the least effective policy to solve climate change – most recent studies.

The results of the analysis are typically based on a range of factors that are considered important for achieving sustainable development. Thus, the results of the fuzzy AHP analysis indicate that research and development (GEP2) was found to be the most important policy option (alternative) for transitioning to a sustainable energy future and addressing climate change, followed by carbon pricing (GEP3), RE targets (GEP1), circular economy (GEP6), energy access (GEP4), and green jobs creation (GEP6). The final ranking of different policy options for transitioning to a sustainable energy future and addressing climate change is presented in Table 5.
The fuzzy AHP analysis is a sophisticated decision-making instrument that assists in determining and prioritizing crucial policy alternatives for transitioning to a GE and promoting a sustainable energy future. Consequently, the results indicate that a multifaceted approach, encompassing R&D, carbon pricing, and renewable energy goals, may be necessary to effectively move towards a sustainable energy future and address the challenges of climate change.
