Call for paper the Special Issue (SI) on Sustainable Production and Consumption: “Planetary boundaries in sustainable production and consumption systems”

A ‘net-zero’ economy is expected to be developed in the next few years to help towards the Sustainable Development Goals proposed by the United Nations Environment Programme’s Agenda 2030 and the 2050 Paris Agreement’s Climate Goals. It is important to develop global assessment methods and ‘Planetary Boundaries’ (PB) could be considered as one possible approach.The concept of PB identifies nine Earth system processes critical for maintaining the stability and resilience of the Earth’s system as a whole and the PB framework defines nine ‘boundaries’ and spilling over these boundaries increases the risk of causing large-scale abrupt or irreversible environmental impacts.
