The special series addressing UN Sustainable Development Goals highlights "Environmental Management Practices Inspired by SDGs" and aims to call attention to practices, ideas, and thought leaders contributing to sustainability in all facets of the global economy. The 2020s are a transformative decade for human interaction with the environment, largely inspired by the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Scientific research and environmental management practices lead the way to sustainability, and several SDGs aim to reduce our environmental footprint and preserve, protect, and restore ecological health.
