This virtual issue focuses on food ingredients (peptide, protein, carbohydrate, fat, oil, phenolic, flavor, pigment, etc.) obtained from sustainable sources including food waste, single cell source, plant-based materials, and other related sources.
Civil engineers play a critical role in combating climate change. Engineers are actively studying and planning for an increase in extreme weather events (rising sea levels, hurricanes, flooding, tornados, etc.) to ensure our infrastructure is resilient and sustainable for future generations. This curated content from the ASCE Library contains key journal papers, books, and proceedings papers that address the United Nations Sustainability Development Goal 13 for Climate Action.
The UN reports that over half the global population now reside in cities. This growing urbanization puts a strain on the existing infrastructure and increases the importance of sustainability. Civil engineers are exploring ways to make our urban infrastructure more resilient and sustainable for future generations. This curated content from the ASCE Library contains key journal papers, books, and proceedings papers that address the UN SDG 11 for Sustainable Cities and Communities.
Safe and sustainable infrastructure is critical for society. Civil engineers are tasked with finding solutions to minimize risks arising from aging, deterioration, and natural and human-made hazards. This curated content from the ASCE Library contains key journal papers, books, and proceedings papers that address the United Nations Sustainability Development Goal 9 for Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure.
Energy is a leading contributor to climate change due to its part in greenhouse gas emissions. Finding alternative and renewable energy sources, like wind, solar, thermal, and hydro power, will help the global community combat climate change. This curated content from the ASCE Library contains key journal papers, books, and proceedings papers that address the United Nations Sustainability Development Goal #7 for Affordable and Clean Energy.
Access to clean and safe water is critical to public health and economic prosperity. This curated content from the ASCE Library contains key journal papers, books, and proceedings papers that address the United Nations Sustainability Development Goal #6 for Clean Water and Sanitation. ASCE is committed to publishing books and journals that will help inform, develop, and inspire sustainable practices.
Our urgent sustainability challenges demand changes in research paper protocols. To encourage practical applications of your research, abstracts can highlight implications for practitioners and policymakers while referring to specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDG Publishers Compact Fellows have released some top action tips for authors and researchers to assist in responding to these emerging trends.
Global Challenges is an open access peer-reviewed research journal committed to supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals via the publication of high-quality studies relating to the most pressing societal challenges, including climate change, water and food safety, energy generation and distribution, global health, and sustainability. The journal aims at linking scientific research to social issues and economic policy.
As a signatory to the United Nations SDG Publishers Compact, Wiley is committed to championing the SDGs and sharing the published research that will help inform, develop, and inspire action in advancement of the goals. This set of collections highlights some of the research that plays such a crucial role in helping us understand, reflect, and question the roles we play, and the action needed to help move the world towards a more sustainable and resilient path.
To celebrate the International Year of Basic Sciences for Sustainable Development, Angewandte Chemie along with our sister journals from Chemistry Europe and the Asian Chemical Editorial Society, have come together to create a Special Collection of articles highlighting some of the recent work from our authors toward creating a more sustainable future.
