  • Sustainability Science

    Managing Risk and Resilience for Sustainable Development
    • 2nd Edition
    • Per Becker
    • English
    Sustainability is increasingly important across functional sectors and scientific disciplines. Policy-makers, practitioners, and academics continue to wrestle with the complexity of risk, resilience, and sustainability, but because of the necessary transdisciplinary focus, it is difficult to find authoritative content in a single source. Sustainability Science: Managing Risk and Resilience for Sustainable Development, Second Edition, contributes to filling that gap and is completely revised with several new chapters. It asserts that all efforts for the sustainability of humankind are undermined by the four fundamental challenges of complexity, uncertainty, ambiguity, and dynamic change. While there are no silver bullets, this book contends that we need systems approaches, risk approaches, participatory approaches, and resilience approaches to address each of them and endeavours to provide such. With that in mind, this book describes the state of the world (Part I), proposes a way to approach the world (Part II), and suggests how to set out to change the world (Part III).

    • English
    The Water-Energy-Food Nexus: Optimization Models for Decision Making, Volume 32 covers water, energy, and food as crucial resources for human well-being and sustainable development. These resources are inextricably interrelated, therefore, to cover water, energy, and food demands in different sectors and at different scales, it must be considered several sources to produce resources, and the interlinkages of resources for a proper integration must be considered. This book emphasizes issues that must be considered in the design of water-energy-food nexus systems, such as the selection of technologies to produce water or energy, size of technologies, and food required for nutritional demands.In addition, mathematical models are presented for the design of water-energy-food nexus systems involving several strategies to account for issues such as sustainable development, security of resources, interest in conflicts from stakeholders, and efficient allocation of resources.
