“…The plants and microorganisms in a CW form a consortium that increases the plant biomass while performing water management. Therefore, plants use nutrients for growth and photosynthesis, during which CO 2 is eventually converted into biomass, which thereby decreases carbon dioxide emissions [160].…”

Water management is a crucial resource conservation challenge that mankind faces, and encouraging the creation of manmade wetlands with the goal of achieving long-term water management is the key to long-term urban development. To summarise and analyse the status of the research on the relationship between water management and constructed wetlands, this paper makes use of the advantages of the bibliometric visualization of CiteSpace to generate country/region maps and author-collaboration maps, and to analyse research hotspots and research dynamics by using keywords and literature co-citations based on 1248 pieces of related literature in the core collection in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The existing research shows that the research content and methods in the field of constructed-wetland and water-management research are constantly being enriched and deepened, including the research methods frequently used in constructed wetlands in water management and in the research content under concern, the functions and roles of constructed wetlands, the relevant measurement indicators of the purification impact of constructed wetlands on water bodies, and the types of water bodies treated by constructed wetlands in water management. We summarise the impact pathways of constructed wetlands on water management, as well as the impact factors of constructed wetlands under water-management objectives, by analysing the future concerns in the research field to provide references for research.

“…Empirical studies conducted by domestic and foreign scholars based on several perspectives show that urbanization and carbon emission growth are interactively and dynamically coupled in several aspects (Zhou et al, 2003;Pahunang et al, 2021;. Hanif (2018) explored the impact of economic growth, urban expansion, and energy consumption on environmental degradation in developing economies in sub-Saharan Africa.…”

To understand the complex relationship between urbanization and carbon emissions, this study measures the urbanization level and land-use carbon emissions of 19 counties and districts in Ningxia from 2009 to 2019 using the integrated index method and carbon emission model, respectively, and explores the coupling relationship based on the coupling coordination degree model, to provide theoretical support for low-carbon urbanization and carbon emission reduction planning in Ningxia. The research results showed that the comprehensive evaluation index of the Ningxia urbanization system shows a linear increasing trend with an average annual growth of 1.6%, but the overall level is low, and the overall spatial pattern being high in the North and low in the South is shown. The dominant type of urbanization is population and economic urbanization. The average annual growth rate of net carbon emissions from land use in Ningxia is 4.75 106t/a. Spatially, it is characterized by higher levels in cities in the North along the Yellow River Ecological and Economic Zone and lower levels in the central arid zone and southern mountainous areas. The coupling degree and coupling coordination degree of Ningxia urbanization and land use carbon emissions show a fluctuating upward trend but belong to a low level of mutual constraints, i.e., the low level of development of Ningxia urbanization, backward industries, and low energy utilization lead to the growth of carbon emissions in Ningxia and restrict the development of urbanization. The government should take into account the regional differences when formulating carbon emission reduction policies to maintain appropriate population size, optimize the economic structure, and improve the land use efficiency.

“…The scope of this work is highly matched with the green solutions perspective towards wastewater treatment. According to other papers recently published in the same field (Corpuz et al, 2021;Pahunang et al, 2021), this work shows the importance of the study of algae and their combination with bacteria to reduce environmental pressures and treat the wastewater streams.…”

The planet Earth stands out in the known Universe for its wealth of water, biodiversity, and living species, including humans. Water is majorly relevant to all living beings; in some organisms, up to 90% of their body weight comes from water. Up to 60% of the human adult body is water. In the same way, our planet is covered up to 70% by water. With its natural and anthropic cycles, water is an essential element in our planet, and any alteration in terms of its quantity and/or quality can affect the health of all interconnected elements and living species. The water resource is not the sole element crucial for the health of people, animals, and the natural ecosystems; all environmental resources are interconnected and participate in the health of living species and ecosystems. These aspects are generally approached by civil and environmental engineering or, more in general, by environmental scholars.If from one side it is reasonably verified that we live under one planet and the interconnections between the different elements are generally known; however, the environmental engineering science and the health matters of humans and animals are fundamentally not well integrated, which is of concern at present days. "One Health" is an integrated approach between three main spheres of knowledge (Figure 1): human health, animals' health, and living environments or environmental health (Ash, 2019;Zinsstag et al., 2018). The latter component is often neglected, as evident from the various sources where it is not mentioned strongly (Essack, 2018). As it is known, environmental issues seem to be a significant index towards accomplishing UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The 17 SDGs illustrate how to develop a sustainable and healthy environment for all living beings (Brito, 2012;Griggs et al., 2013), all highly interconnected with the "One Health" approach.One Health is not a new approach, but it is more recently put into action by FAO and WHO because globalization and relative movement of people, animals, and natural products have exponentially increased from international travel and trade. As a result, diseases can spread quickly across borders around the globe, and the most evident indicator of this issue is the current COVID19 pandemic.
