The effects of forest harvesting are very evident aboveground, with clear contrasts between areas that are clearcut and those that are managed with some degree of retention of old trees.  The implications for the belowground portions of forest ecosystems are difficult to see, but fundamental to the future development of the recovering forest.

This chapter advances UN SDG goals 7 and 13 by examining large-scale infrastructure and the associated safety hazards of emerging hydrogen technologies as a replacement for fossil fuels in the global energy and transport industries.

This chapter advances UN SDG goals 7 and 13 by critically evaluating the current status of waste-to-energy (WtE) processes to determine how best to move forward from a few successful WtE demonstrations to commercial-scale processes.

An investigation supporting SDGs 7 and 13, based in Ghana, into the possibility of using slaughterhouse wastes as a source of renewable energy through biogas technology. The researchers concluded that 'Ghana generates significant amount of slaughterhouse waste each year that can be processed using AD [anaerobic digestion] for energy and electricity production to supplement the country's electricity needs, while reducing GHG emissions'.

We observe the link between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We use automated methodologies to find insights and overlaps between AI and the SDGs. AI-Ethics frameworks need to give more attention to Society and Environment areas. Inclusive action is needed to balance the efforts for solving SDGs by using AI.SDGs 13, 14, and 15 (all related to the Environment area) are not sufficiently addressed.

This research examined the potential impacts of adaptation on snakebite using individual-based simulations, focusing on strategies meant to counteract major crop yield decline because of changing rainfall in Sri Lanka.

This study provides an assessment of land surface temperature across North, South, and Northwest China in relation to urbanization.

This Article supports SDGs 3 and 13 by estimating how global income inequality might have to be reduced in order to ensure both decent living standards and reductions in global energy use for planetary health.

This paper concludes that ASF (animal-source foods) production generally has a large environmental impact; yet, when produced at an appropriate scale and in accordance with local ecosystems and contexts, livestock can play an important role in circular and diverse agroecosystems that, in certain circumstances, can help restore biodiversity and degraded land, mitigate Green House Gas emissions from food production, and contribute to food security and nutrition for populations worldwide.

This Article supports SDG7 and 13 by proposing a new model to identify the most critical features of energy storage system technologies to enhance renewable energy integration and achieve New York State's climate goals from 2025 to 2040.
