Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue of Sustainability, which will explore the linkages between the green economy and sustainable development economics by presenting new and innovative research.
The green economy has emerged as an essential policy framework for sustainable economic development in developed and developing countries in the last two decades, considering that global warming has become more apparent. The leading world organisations, such as the World Bank, IMF, UNDP, and WTO, urge countries to transform their traditional economic structures into green economies. In order to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and to meet net-zero emissions targets, many countries have started to adopt green economy principles in different sectors of their economies with many innovative financial and economic approaches. This Special Issue covers all aspects of the green economy and sustainable development economics. The green economy and sustainable economic development prevail over many challenges in terms of sustainable consumption and production to improve production and reduce waste of economic resources.
Manuscripts that explore the theoretical, empirical, philosophical, ethical, financial, and economic aspects of the green economy and sustainable development and their impacts on local, regional, and global economies are particularly welcomed.
This Special Issue of Sustainability invites researchers to present manuscripts from both the perspective of sustainability issues as well as from the perspective of linking research ideas.
