Abstract
The paper aims to form a systemic view of the problems of ecological economics in the context of climate change from the perspective of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a result, the author substantiates the systemic role of combating climate change in the development of ecological economics. The author finds that the components of ecological economics are closely interrelated (interdependent by 43.11%) and experience common problems due to climate change. Combating climate change has been proven to be a common problem in the development of the ecological economics, affecting the implementation of its constituent SDG 2, SDG 3, SDG 6, SDG 11, SDG 14, and SDG 15. The author proposes a systemic approach to solving the problems of ecological economics through combating climate change, which makes it possible to fully implement SDG 13 by increasing the availability and development of “clean” energy (in the implementation of SDG 7) and developing responsible production and consumption. The theoretical significance of these results is that they formed a systemic view of ecological economics and its key problem (climate change) and provided a holistic view of ecological economics from the perspective of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The practical significance of the proposed systemic approach to solving the problems of the ecological economics through combating climate change is that it makes it possible to most fully engage and optimally use the levers of management and stimulates the development of the ecological economics, unlocking the potential of reducing environmental costs of economic growth.
