Over the years, due to the climate crisis, sustainable economic growth and biodiversity protection have been increasingly promoted. Scientists, researchers, and experts in the field of sustainable development highlighted that bio-based restoration of ecosystems and responsible management of existing resources are needed to meet the needs of future generations. This paper discusses some of the latest developments in three main areas of sustainability, i.e., energy, water and environment, that emerged from the "16th Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems Conference - SDEWES 2021". The purpose of this introduction article is to briefly review the articles included in this Virtual Special Issue. As such, it acts as an editorial paper for the virtual special issue of the Journal of Environmental Management, dedicated to the SDEWES 2021 conference.
多年来，由于气候危机，可持续经济增长和生物多样性保护日益受到重视。科学家、研究人员和可持续发展领域的专家强调，需要通过生物为基础的生态系统恢复和现有资源的负责任管理，来满足子孙后代的需求。本文讨论了从“第十六届能源、水和环境系统可持续发展大会-SDEWES 2021”中出现的可持续性的三个主要领域（即能源、水和环境）中的一些最新进展。本文的目的是简要回顾本期虚拟特刊中包含的文章。因此，它作为《环境管理杂志》的虚拟特刊的社论文章，专门针对 SDEWES 2021 会议。
