Publisher's Synopsis
This edited book is a collection of essays based on presentations at the 8th conference in an annual endowed series held at Duquesne University, USA. The conference series addresses emerging concerns and pivotal problems about our planet's environment and ecology. The contributions gathered here highlight the inter-relation of topics and expertise, connecting well-being as a UN sustainable development goal with health, bioengineering, and the natural and social environment.

The book is written for scholars and students in a variety of disciplines and fields that deal with sustainability.
