  • Special Issue by invitation only: Socio-Environmental Footprints in Energy, Materials, Waste and International Justice

    The transition from a linear to a circular economy requires a holistic understanding of the long-term sustainability implications associated with the new patterns being implemented. In this context, it is essential to understand the not only the environmental footprints related to different products and services, but also the social impacts. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to disseminate knowledge and generate further analysis.

  • Special Issue by invitation only: Responsible Consumption and Production

    Implementing the UN Sustainable Development Goal 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) requires a systematic and interdisciplinary approach employing strategies and activities targeting consumption patterns, production competences, technical and social innovation, as well as motivating awareness for responsibility which will change the future of education in alignment with societal development.

    This Special Issue will host selected papers presented at the 3rd International Conference on Responsible Consumption and Production (EURECA-PRO Conference 2023) that was held in Chania, Crete, Greece on 26-29 September 2023.

  • Call for Papers for a Special Issue: Circular Bioeconomy tools and technologies to accelerate the green transition in the Mediterranean

    The Special Issue invites papers on the research areas of sustainable production and management of biomass, sustainable water resources and soil management using nature-based solutions, recycling of materials and production of new products, reduction of the environmental footprint in the tourism industry, and also other scientific fields related to Circular Economy and Bioeconomy. As the Special Issue has a specific regional focus, manuscripts should clearly demonstrate the contribution of the study to the green transition of the Mediterranean region.
