Description

Current Issues and Sustainable Contexts has accorded a thorough exploration of sustainability and the diversifying aspects of the subject in economic, environmental, social, touristic, educational, and heritage-based contexts. The multidisciplinary book is organized into six sections that encompass critical analyses, case studies, as well as prescriptive and futuristic ideas to tackle some of the world’s most crucial questions. Environmental sustainability covers interesting subjects that include the influence of Buddhism on eco-balance, effects of PFAS chemicals, and upsurging trends in artificial intelligence. These discussions address the intricacies of interrelated factors that will consequently shape sustainability during this age of fast global changes. In terms of travel sustainability, the book has excellent examples, such as wellness tourism in Sri Lanka and the resurrection of community-based tourism in the aftermath of COVID-19. Social and educational sustainability discussions highlight transformative education and the importance of sustainability accounting in driving meaningful change. The heritage sustainability chapter analyzes challenges and opportunities for the discipline regarding the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The last section on economic sustainability has offered a razor-sharp concentration on topical issues like cryptocurrencies, income inequality, e-commerce growth, and environmental degradation, adding diversified perspectives into the narrative. This authoritative volume stands as an excellent reference for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners of sustainability as fresh global research input and actionable perspectives are meant to inspire and instill innovative solutions for a more sustainable future.
