Interdisciplinary Pathways to Environmental Sustainability

Autor Matthew Ogwu
en Limba Engleză Hardback – oct 2027
Interdisciplinary Pathways to Environmental Sustainability provides a holistic, practice-oriented synthesis of the pathways through which societies can advance environmental sustainability through integrated scientific, technological, ecological, and community-based approaches. Drawing on ecology, environmental microbiology, environmental health, waste and water management, digital monitoring, predictive modeling, governance, and participatory sustainability practices, the book demonstrates how diverse knowledge systems converge to address water safety, pollution control, food and waste systems, energy transitions, ecosystem resilience, and climate adaptation. Technologies and materials are framed not as the central theme but as enabling tools that support informed decision-making, environmental stewardship, and resilient socio-ecological systems. It will offer researchers, professionals, and policymakers a structured guide to integrating scientific insights, traditional knowledge, and technological capabilities.
  • Offers an integrated systems approach combining ecology, public health, technology, and governance.
  • Highlights the practical and conceptual pathways for building sustainable, equitable, and resilient socio-environmental systems.
  • Includes numerous practical case studies drawn from the United States, Ghana, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, China, India, the United Kingdom, and Brazil.
  • Demonstrates how interdisciplinary sustainability solutions operate across different ecological, cultural, and policy contexts.
