New in The Innovation Geoscience! Space-air-ground integrated system for illegal waste dumping sites monitoring.
This commentary proposes a space-air-ground integrated monitoring system for the quantification and characterization of illegal waste dumping sites and discusses the challenges and future prospects for sustainable municipal waste management.

Fast fashion = fast waste.

Clothing production keeps rising, but garments are worn less and less before being discarded—fuelling pollution & depleting resources.

#ZeroWasteDay on March 30 calls for a shift towards circular fashion to help #BeatWastePollution: https://t.co/JTF6LR91VU

The innovation in PPC synthesis technology has greater mitigation potential than photovoltaic power substitution.

Now scientists say wearing JEANS is bad for the environment: Study reveals wearing a pair just once is the equivalent to driving a car for 6.4 miles https://t.co/QxpqbTJ82t

The production and cross-broad transportation are major contributors (91%) to carbon footprint of fast fashion consumption. Offline second-hand trading reduced emissions by 90 percent compared to fast fashion consumption.

[Ya Zhou @YaZhou2017]

Carbon footprint of fast fashion consumption is 11 times higher than that of traditional fashion consumption. See our latest paper in @STOTEN_journal https://t.co/rNaMt7FMSA. #endingfastfashion #sustainablefashion

How fast fashion can cut its staggering environmental impact https://t.co/jtSWVXvkiU

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Plastics are fossil fuels in another form & pose a serious threat to human rights, the climate & biodiversity.

As negotiations towards an agreement to #BeatPlasticPollution continue, I call on countries to look beyond waste and turn off the tap on plastic.

#COVID19 impact survey

We NEED your help to shed light on how the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) is affecting us. Please take a brief moment to complete this short survey as part of a research study. We appreciate your time and effort!

Globally, more and more people have been getting the meals they consume delivered by third-party services. A new #SciencePolicyForum argues that the consequences and policy implications of this “food-delivery revolution” deserve greater research attention. https://t.co/YiVfidg7Az

A sustainable future requires preservation of the world’s finite resources. Advanced technologies and techniques are helping an array of industries to make reuse and recycling more central to their operations. Read the latest @Nature Outlook. https://t.co/EffNfWWYBi

Contrary to the conclusion of "Air pollution as a determinant of #fooddelivery and related #plastic waste" in @NatureHumBehav , we found that one-way effect of environmental factors (i.e., PM2.5) on #foodpackaging #waste generation was minimal.

[Ya Zhou @YaZhou2017]

The growing #fooddelivery
industry has led to mass #packaging #waste. Our new paper in @RCRjournal
explored drivers and their interactions of takeaway food packaging waste generation in China.https://t.co/cdCNvs36T2

Out now in @The_InnovationJ! Researchers developed a forecasting model to simulate the performance of Chinese cities in 17 #sustainable #development goals (SDGs) by 2030, and presented cost-effective integrated paths to promote the achievement of all SDGs.
