Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems is devoted to the rapidly emerging fields of agroecology and food system sustainability. By linking scientific inquiry and productive practice with transformative social action, agroecology provides a foundation for developing the alternative food systems of the future. The journal focuses on the changes that need to occur in the design and management of our food systems in order to balance natural resource use and environmental protection with the needs of production, economic viability, food security, and the social well-being of all people. Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems examines our current food systems from production to consumption, and the urgent need to transition to long-term sustainability. The journal promotes the study and application of agroecology for developing alternatives to the complex problems of resource depletion, environmental degradation, a narrowing of agrobiodiversity, continued world hunger, consolidation and industrialization of the food system, climate change, and the loss of farm land. The journal uses a food systems approach, and seeks experiences in agroecology that are on-farm, participatory, change-oriented, and backed by broad-based methodologies of sustainability analysis and evaluation.
Environmental and Climate Technologies provides a forum for information on innovation, research and development in the areas of environmental science, energy resources and processes, innovative technologies and energy efficiency. Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts which cover the range from bioeconomy, sustainable technology development, life cycle analysis, eco-design, climate change mitigation, innovative solutions for pollution reduction to resilience, the energy efficiency of buildings, secure and sustainable energy supplies. The Journal ensures international publicity for original research and innovative work. A variety of themes are covered through a multi-disciplinary approach, one which integrates all aspects of environmental science: -Sustainability of technology development- Bioeconomy- Cleaner production, end of pipe production- Zero emission technologies- Eco-design- Life cycle analysis- Eco-efficiency- Environmental impact assessment- Environmental management systems- Resilience- Energy and carbon markets- Greenhouse gas emission reduction and climate technologies- Methodologies for the evaluation of sustainability- Renewable energy resources- Solar, wind, geothermal, hydro energy, biomass sources: algae, wood, straw, biogas, energetic plants and organic waste- Waste management- Quality of outdoor and indoor environment- Environmental monitoring and evaluation- Heat and power generation, including district heating and/or cooling- Energy efficiency.
For investigation regarding the impact of planning policy on spatial planning implementation, International review for Spatial Planning and Sustainable Development (IRSPSD International) seeks to learn from researchers in an integrated multidisciplinary platform that reflects a variety of perspectives—such as economic development, social equality, and ecological protection—with a view to achieving a sustainable urban form. This international journal attempts to provide insights into the achievement of a sustainable urban form, through spatial planning and implementation; here, we focus on planning experiences at the levels of local cities and some metropolitan areas in the world, particularly in Asian countries. Submission are expected from multidisciplinary viewpoints encompassing land-use patterns, housing development, transportation, green design, and agricultural and ecological systems.

The IJISD focuses on broad aspects of innovation and sustainable development. It fosters discussion not only on technological innovation but on new ways of thinking about the complex and contested issues of sustainable development. Innovative thinking and practices in areas of economics, policy-making, legislation, health, education and the institutional barriers to sustainable development form the basis of the discourse to be fostered.
This peer-reviewed Journal publishes original research results in the field of environmental and ecological science, with focus on sustainable management of natural, human-dominated, and man-made ecosystems through appropriate resource use, quality assessment and recovery. The aim of the Journal is to provide a place for a deep exchange of new ideas and concepts in the fields of environmental accounting, human and systems ecology, environmental management and environmental policy making. Manuscripts on environmental accounting and managements are solicited, including: mathematical modeling; computational and management techniques in environmental, ecological, energy and information science; environmental technology and engineering; human managed ecosystems such as agricultural, urban, coastal, riparian, and wetland ecosystems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Topics of Interest: -Environmental and ecological economics, environmental accounting (Life Cycle Assessment, emergy, footprints, etc), environmental impact assessment, ecosystem services and natural capital assessment, energy and resource use, social factors and impacts, circular economy. -Modeling in environmental conservation and restoration, eco-hydrology and water resources management, ecological processes and patterns, climate change effects, environmental engineering and technology. -Planning and management in human dimension-institutions and patterns for socio-economic systems, industrial ecology, ecological informatics, landscape design, and urban metabolism and planning. -Environmental policy, legislation, and innovations with environmental and strategic impact assessment, project appraisal and auditing, and environmental protection. No length limitations for contributions are set, but only concisely written manuscripts are considered for publication. Brief papers can be published on the basis of Technical Notes. Discussions of previous published papers are welcome.
