“…This paradigm provides for a constant increase in free energy. In modern models of sustainable development the capacity is used as a measure of development of the system (Bolshakov & Ryabkova, 2009;Hasanova et al, 2019;Patrakeyev et al, 2017).…”

During transiting to the post-industrial era the role of cities and urban environment functions are transformed. A new type of economic system imposes new requirements to the urban environment as a space for the population life and doing business. Today, on the basis of the concept of sustainable development, a general scientific paradigm of cognition is being formed as a result of the synthesis of sciences about nature, society and man. There are many approaches to the concept of sustainable development. The most modern concept, according to the authors of the article, understands of sustainable development, which is based on laws of the conservation of energy or power, as a general law of Nature. The article proposes a comprehensive approach based on the integration of the capabilities of modern GIS and intelligent technologies for estimating the potential, real and missed opportunities of the urban environment in the context of using incomplete and fuzzy information. The application of the proposed approach to estimating the sustainable development of the urban environment on the example of Ukrainian cities is shown.

Cities are critical to a sustainable future for our planet; still, the construction and operation of cities rely on intensive resource and energy use and transformation, leading to the generation of waste, effluents, and pollution, representing negative externalities outside and inside the city. Within every process, transformation implies the use of energy and the increase of entropy. In an urban system, the transformation of energy and materials will trigger the creation of entropic landscapes, mainly in the informal city and in unguarded natural landscapes, even hundreds of kilometers away, which generates substantial economic, social, and environmental impacts. In this sense, cities are significant contributors to the environmental crisis. Upstream, degradation of landscapes and ecosystems is frequent. Cities’ externalities and exogenous consumptions are directly linked with entropy and entropic landscapes, which are recognized as pollution (in the air, water, and land) or waste and in the degradation of natural ecosystems and communities. Through a systematic review of existing literature, this paper first outlines briefly how entropy has been applied in different disciplines and then focuses on presenting recent developments of how entropy has been defined, used, and characterized in urban studies concerning sustainability in cities and architecture, and presents a definition of the concept in relation to urban systems and key aspects to consider.

“…В останні роки, в умовах стрімкого глобального соціально-економічного розвитку та масового зростання населення, різні види господарської діяльності людини завдали великої шкоди глобальним екосистемам і привернули до себе широку увагу, такі як екологічна деградація [1], зменшення біорізноманіття [2], ерозія ґрунтів [3], проблеми з водними ресурсами [4] та екстремальні кліматичні явища [5]. Швидкий і точний моніторинг змін екологічного стану довкілля та виявлення їхніх тенденцій мають велике значення для захисту екосистем і вироблення обґрунтованої політики розвитку та охорони довкілля [1][2][3][4][5][6][7].…”

The ecological environment system is closely related to human daily life. With the acceleration of industrialization and urbanization, various human activities have brought great impacts on the local ecological environment. Timely and accurate evaluation of spatial and temporal changes in the quality of the ecological environment helps policy makers to understand the current status of the ecological environment in the region, and is of great significance for the rational development of ecological environmental protection and policies, which has become a research priority in the field of ecology. In this study, Lviv Oblast, an important region in western Ukraine, is taken as the study area, and the remote sensing ecological index remotely sensing ecological index (RSEI) of Lviv Oblast for 2015 and 2021 was constructed based on remote sensing technology, and the ecological quality of Lviv Oblast during six years was rapidly monitored and evaluated, and the results of the study show that the The average values of RSEI in 2015 and 2021 are 0.66 and 0.68, respectively, indicating a gradual improvement of ecological quality. This reflects the small impact of the deterioration of the ecological environment caused by human activities in the region in recent years.This study provides a methodological reference for evaluating the quality of the ecological environment in the Lviv region, which is of some value for the rational planning of local ecological and environmental protection strategies and policies for sustainable economic development.
