Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Global sustainability is impacted by several major issues, including climate change, resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and pollution. Climate change results in extreme weather events, while overreliance on fossil fuels and water scarcity depletes essential resources. Biodiversity loss stems from habitat destruction and species extinction. Pollution, encompassing air, water, and soil contamination, further degrades the environment. Rapid population growth and urbanization increase pressure on resources and infrastructure, while social inequities and economic disparities exacerbate these challenges. Unsustainable consumption and production, coupled with weak governance and policy, hinder sustainability efforts. Technological and infrastructural challenges and cultural and behavioral barriers impede progress. Addressing these issues requires a comprehensive approach that integrates environmental, social, and economic dimensions, fostering innovation, collaboration, and equitable practices. This edited volume addresses the pressing sustainability and environmental challenges our planet and society face today. It is intended to comprehensively explore how we can move beyond merely discussing these issues to finding and implementing informed solutions. It aims to inform the creation of a sustainable future for all of us, both locally and globally, by focusing on cross-sector engagement, human capacity building, co-design, networking, and innovation. The primary objective of the volume is to propose practical pathways to solutions and their implementation, highlighting the progress and innovations being developed worldwide. This book will explore how research and innovation are applied to understand, mitigate, and adapt to the significant environmental stresses we face. It will showcase the latest in sustainability science and foster new collaborations, expanding networks and connecting with new markets.
