Environmental Science and Sustainable Development

Aims & Scope

Aims and Scope The Journal of Environmental Science Sustainable Development (ESSD) is an international, peer-reviewed publication committed to advancing scientific and practical knowledge related to environmental science and long-term global sustainability. The journal holds an interdisciplinary scope, featuring holistic and solution-oriented research across three major thematic approaches: Sustainable Urbanism and the Built Environment: The journal accepts submissions on the planning, design, and management of resilient human settlements. This includes but is not limited to optimizing urban morphology, mitigating the urban heat island effect, enhancing urban biodiversity through urban green space, and applying principles of regenerative urban development. The journal accepts papers focusing on achieving better building energy efficiency and high thermal performance. This includes using sustainable materials and sustainable architecture, as well as applying technologies like digital fabrication and smart city governance. The journal also welcomes studies addressing the protection and adaptive reuse of cultural heritage and traditional architecture within a framework of urban resilience. Environmental Science and Resource Systems : This covers the scientific and technological dimensions of the causes and solutions for Global Warming and climate change mitigation, research into renewable energy, and the management of air and water pollution and chemical waste. The journal welcomes research that promotes the circular economy and resource efficiency, including advanced solid waste management and material valorization, such as natural structural material and low-carbon biofuels. Scientific modeling, risk assessment, disaster risk reduction, and ecological footprint analysis are also key areas. Socio-Cultural and Policy Frameworks: This area focuses on the human dimensions necessary for a successful sustainability transition. The scope includes studies on environmental ps
