This article explores the critical role of governments in fostering sustainable innovation to combat climate change, focusing on Sustainable Development Goal 13 and the Paris Agreement. It highlights the Quintuple Helix innovation model, which integrates ecological considerations alongside academia, industry, government, and civil society to drive socio-ecological transitions. The paper discusses the interplay between public and private sectors, societal engagement, and the uncertainties of climate policy. It concludes with insights on how integrated efforts can lead to resilient, sustainable systems that align economic growth with environmental preservation.
