Global warming and climate change call for urgent minimization of the impact of human activities on the environment. There is a great need for the improvement of resource efficiencies by integrating various life-supporting systems. The challenge is on the energy, water and environment systems to integrate and become more sustainable. This research field has received increased attention over the past years with studies across the energy, water and environment systems that optimized different engineering problems. The present Special Issue stems from four Conferences on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems held in 2020, in four countries of three continents. This review introduction article intends to introduce the topical field and the articles included in this Special Issue of Optimization and Engineering.
全球变暖和气候变化要求紧急将人类活动对环境的影响降至最低。通过整合各种生命支持系统来提高资源利用效率的需求极为迫切。能源、水和环境系统面临着整合并变得更具可持续性的挑战。在过去几年中，这一研究领域受到了越来越多的关注，针对能源、水和环境系统开展了诸多研究，以优化不同的工程问题。本期特刊源自2020年在三大洲四个国家举办的四场能源、水和环境系统可持续发展会议。这篇综述性介绍文章旨在介绍这一主题领域以及本期《优化与工程》特刊所收录的文章。
