Mission
Resources, Environment and Sustainability is a peer-reviewed transdisciplinary journal aiming at publishing high-quality original research from a broad range of natural, social and engineering fields. The publications emphasize sustainable resource utilization, associated environmental impact mitigation, and potential solutions to achieve resource and environmental sustainability.
Previous explorations of pathways to maximize resource utilization efficiency and minimize environmental impacts have been greatly constrained within isolated disciplines, which calls for novel integration across natural, social and technological systems. Understanding the mechanism and inspiring society to sustain future generations with finite natural resources and limited environmental capacity are the overarching goals of this journal.
Scope:
- Resources, Environment and Sustainability will cover topics including, but not limited to:
- Sustainable agriculture and food production
- Sustainable production and cleaner production
- Circular economy and waste management
- Life cycle assessment
- Sustainable development and sustainability
- Sustainable consumption
- Environmental quality improvement and remediation
In addition to publishing original research and analyses, Resources, Environment and Sustainability will publish Reviews, Viewpoints, Comments, and Editorials from across the full range of disciplines concerned with sustainable resource supply and environmental sustainability.
Their major mission is to bridge the gap between academia across disciplines and policy making by facilitating a combinatorial and cross-disciplinary platform that works towards strategic approaches to conserve natural resources and the environment.
Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
