Eco-Friendly and New Technology-Based Management for a Healthy Environment

Dear Colleagues,

Currently, our society is grappling with a dire environmental crisis stemming from the exponential rise in demand for energy, water resources, land, and various other resources, fueled by industrial expansion. This unchecked growth has resulted in the release of substantial amounts of pollutants, such as smoke, wastewater, and other forms of waste, significantly contributing to environmental degradation. The consequences of this rise in pollution not only pose a threat to the health and well-being of human life but also portend catastrophic environmental calamities in the near future.

In light of this pressing issue, numerous industries are actively pursuing eco-friendly and sustainable management practices leveraging cutting-edge technologies, which are heralded as the key to mitigating the current environmental crisis. The imperative is to shift towards innovative solutions that are not only efficient but also environmentally conscious. This Special Issue is crafted to underscore the pivotal role that new technologies play in fostering eco-friendliness, a healthy environment, and sustainable management practices.

By showcasing the significance of these technologies, we aim to inspire a paradigm shift towards more sustainable industrial practices that prioritize environmental preservation and long-term viability. It is through the adoption of these innovative solutions that we can pave the way for a more sustainable and harmonious coexistence with our planet.
