Review of: "Adverse Environmental and Public Health Effects of Artificial Intelligence: A Comprehensive Review"

Overall assessmentThis manuscript addresses an important and timely topic.However, in its current form it falls short of the standards expected of a rigorous review article.The paper repeatedly overstates causal claims, selectively cites literature, mixes speculative assertions with empirical evidence, and blurs advocacy with scholarship.Many quantitative gures are presented without suf cient methodological context, and the review lacks balance, systematically excluding counterevidence or uncertainty.Substantial revision is required before this work can be considered scienti cally robust. Major concerns1. Lack of methodological rigor for a "comprehensive review" Problem: Although the paper claims to be a "comprehensive review" (title; Methods section), it explicitly states that it does not follow PRISMA or any structured review framework (Section 2).The inclusion/exclusion criteria are vague, subjective, and inconsistently applied. Speci c issues:No ow diagram or count of screened vs. included studies is provided.No quality assessment of included studies (e.g., risk of bias, study design hierarchy).Heavy reliance on preprints, opinion pieces,
