Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit an article for peer-review and possible publication in a Special Issue of Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050), an international, cross-disciplinary, and open access journal of environmental, cultural, economic, and social sustainability of human beings. The topic of this Special Issue focuses on 'Decarbonisation Investment towards Environmental Sustainability'.
The Earth is reaching a breaking point due to exponential population growth (leading to greater CO2 emissions and deforestation), as well as industrial and technological growth (leading to more power need). The consequences of the greenhouse effect (or global warming) on ecosystems and communities can be foreseen through melting ice, rising seas, extreme heat waves and droughts, increasing flooding frequency, etc. Therefore, now more than ever, governments and organisations should consider investing in environmentally sustainable practices, for example, using clean energy and sustainable manufacturing, to conserve natural resources and protect global ecosystems to secure health and wellbeing in the future.
This Special Issue would like to contribute to the field of decarbonisation investment towards environmental sustainability. It aims to present original research articles and the most relevant advances in this research area that provide new insights on the current and emerging issues of decarbonisation investment strategies, modelling techniques, and algorithms. The findings from this Special Issue are important for researchers, policy-makers, decision-makers, and relevant stakeholders to deliver net-zero carbon emission by 2050.
