Aims and scope

Green and sustainable technologies, which are environmentally friendly and low-carbon, are rapidly growing and are positioned to dominate world’s future.  Unfortunately, as the negative environmental, health and economic impacts of non-sustainable choices become ever more abominable, there is a clear need to accelerate the penetration of green technologies to create a resilient global society.

To do this, renewable energy sources including solar, wind, hydro, tidal, geothermal, and storage concepts must be scaled up, green materials processing technologies must be expanded including recycling, industrial symbiosis and industrial ecology. Society’s transportation system must be decarbonized. The world’s unsustainable systems must be converted to green resilient systems en masse and new green technologies that remediate environmental desecration but be scaled up. We must anticipate challenges and global catastrophic risks and prepare for them to make a resilient society. Free and open source technological development has been proven to be one of the most potent sources of innovation and rapid technology distribution. Thus, open source green technologies are of particular interest as it couples open source rapid innovation with the much-needed acceleration of green technology deployment. 

Green Technology, Resilience and Sustainability is an open access international, multi-disciplinary journal in green technology engineering and research focused on solutions for sustainability and global resilience. The journal aims to be a leading peer-reviewed platform and an authoritative source of original research and reviews related to Green Technology, Resilience and Sustainability.
