Increasing human population demands more usage of consumable items thus causes more destruction to the environment by developing advanced materials and technologies. As innovations in worldwide face a variety of challenges arising from environmental changes, it has become a global concern to adopt a sustainable development strategy that ensures "harmonious symbiosis" between innovation and nature.
"Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs".
With the continuous increase in global population and the escalating impact of climate change, biosphere is facing unprecedented challenges. At this critical juncture, achieving sustainable environment. Environmental sustainability is a significant global issue. It is commonly known that human activity affects public health, depletes non-renewable resources; damages plant habitat, growth, and development; and affects soil health in addition to creating environmental degradation.
Sustainable development can satisfy today's needs without endangering the capacity of future generations. It comprises four basic elements that must complement one another: environmental, economic, educational, and social sustainability. Accelerated urbanisation has resulted in the deterioration of the environment of cities and loss of quality of life. Energy-saving and eco-friendly building designs have become an important part of modern development. Clean water and sanitation are crucial for human development. The world has been dealing with issues related to pollution and its effects on the environment. Amongst them one is the improper waste disposal and management of solid waste. This is a major challenge to sustainable development. Improper disposal of waste leads to health hazards for living beings as it worsens the quality of the environment.
There is lack of understanding of sustainability literacy of environmental engineers, economists and who working in healthcare and public health sectors and the extent their literacy level can contribute to sustainability performance in environment and human health in worldwide. The quality and stability of the environment are inevitable requirements of sustainable development, and previous studies have confirmed that digital economy and technological innovation have a positive enabling effect on the quality of worldwide environment.
The rapid population growth has led to the production of a substantial volume of municipal solid waste, and landfills which have led to an increases of emerging contaminants in the environment, and heavy metal contamination in soils, water, and food. This is a considerable civic health issue which has been extensively researched worldwide, but no definitive resolutions have yet been proposed. Amongst emerging contaminants, the contamination of pesticides, xenobiotics, microplastic pollution, artificial dye, cosmetic products, cleaning products, detergents, pharmacological products like antibiotics and hormones are particularly worrying in many regions globally.
Increased water pollution is closely linked to industrial, agricultural, and residential activities, which may have detrimental effects on the health of humans, animals, and/or other living things as well as biosphere. Understanding the ecotoxicological aspects of substances is an important element in the sustainability of water/wastewater treatment.
Human health effects associated with e.g., healthy nutrition, food and clean water securities, air pollution are related to respiratory problems, mainly correlated with time exposure of people to particulate matter. Dramatic changes in the atmosphere due to a surge in acid substances have become one of the most serious environmental problems in the last century.
Due to climate change and extreme weather events, natural disasters are occurring more and more frequently, which makes the study of their effects, not only environmental but also economic and social, gain relevance. Climate change poses a serious risk to human life in the worldwide. Researchers are required towards supporting global vision to meet 50% of energy requirements and achieving net zero emissions by 2070.
The relation between economic development and environmental protection has gained widespread attention. Energy, economic, and environmental analyses, and technical analysis, are important requirements in all sectors of environmental projects. Further research is essential to gain an in-depth understanding of the complex links between career incentives and the environment in worldwide.
Now here is the 15th ICEEE-2024 Online International Annual Conference, which theme: "Global Environmental Development & Sustainability: Research, Engineering & Management" with Workshop Special Session: Environmental Health and Climatic Change.
- The Conference is: ONLINE, FREE OF CHARGE
