Abstract
Climate change and environmental deterioration due to greenhouse gas emissions are a major concern around the globe today. This article aims to highlight how various authors have carried out carbon emissions modeling for smarter carbon footprint management and also proffer solutions to the greenhouse gas emissions issue, which is giving rise to global warming and natural disasters across the globe. This study makes use of the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology for identifying, analyzing, and synthesizing articles published from 2015 to 2020, a period of 6 years, on the topic of carbon emissions modeling. The SLR results indicated that there has been a rising interest in the issue of carbon emissions from the period of 2015 to 2020, as seen by the evolution of publications in the area. This can be explained by the increased incidence of natural disasters occurring as a result of the global warming phenomenon due to greenhouse gas emissions. The various ways in which different models have been used for carbon emission analysis and management have been described, while explaining various means by which greenhouse gas emissions can be curtailed to stop the alarming rate of global warming and maintain a sustainable and habitable planet for all.
