Abstract

Sustainable development, a broadly used idea, has many diverse meanings and causes many different responses. The United Nations describes sustainable development as "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." It encompasses the need to incorporate growing concerns about a range of environmental and public health issues with socio-economic affairs. The chapters in this new book pinpoint the goal to implement greener environment approaches while considering public health and human well-being and economies. The chapters are intended to outline the processes that have been studied, optimized, and developed to sustain our environment and public health. The volume directly presents and examines advances, developments, and the underlying concepts of a healthy urban environment in the areas of water and wastewater treatment, food supply under sustainable development, and chemical contamination. This book provides relevant experimental techniques and case studies to examine potential issues for attaining lifespan practices for sustainable urban and environmental communities. This research-oriented volume provides a reasonable balance in weighing the case studies in diverse populations and the resilience literature. This is an excellent reference book for scholars of healthy urban environments. It takes the research scholars deep into foundations of ethics and sustainable prosperity to fulfill sustainable development goals. It gives knowledge gaps linked to novel research works to our living environment and our future prospects. © 2025 by Apple Academic Press, Inc. All rights reserved.
