Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The COVID-19 pandemic is having significant effects not only on global society and the economy but also on the natural environment and research on public health. In all countries, interest in research on public health and environmental issues is increasing. 

In particular, problems such as particulate matter, particulate plastics, and climate change are important issues related to the sustainability of the environment for our lives, and we need to respond to them. In addition, due to COVID-19, the importance of smart care for non-face-to-face health management or preventive responses from the community or region is increasing in public health. Furthermore, there are many predictions that the situation after COVID-19 will be a society that has changed from the extension of the current change. These efforts require multidisciplinary and convergent thinking and solutions.

Therefore, this Special Issue is focused on “Open Innovation in Research and Industry about Natural Environment and Public Health after COVID-19 Pandemic”.
