Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines the interdependence of the aftermaths of climate change, sustainable development, and Industry 4.0. It overviews how climate change influences the frequency and severity of extreme weather phenomena as well as their impacts on the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainability. Additionally, it evaluates existing policies and practices pertaining to climate disaster management and climate change adaptation strategies at global, regional, national, and local levels. Furthermore, this study investigates the effectiveness and adaptability of Industry 4.0 in the face of challenging climate and facilitating the attainment of sustainable development goals. In conclusion, this study offers suggestions and optimal approaches for coping with the aftermaths of climate change, as well as ensuring that Industry 4.0 aligns with the principles and values of sustainable development. This chapter makes valuable contributions to the field of disaster management, challenges for sustainability, and adaptation in the context of Industry 4.0. It aims to foster increased dialogue and collaboration among policymakers, practitioners, researchers, and other stakeholders to effectively address the challenges posed by the aftermaths of climate change in a sustainable and affective manner.
