The time for business-as-usual, carbon fuel-dependent modes of operation has come to an end. The consequences of our actions are becoming increasingly evident, and we cannot afford to ignore them any longer. To ensure a tomorrow for ourselves and future generations, we must take decisive action.

In this book, experts from various fields come together to offer insights and solutions for preserving and expanding the resources essential to human civilization's survival. From cutting-edge engineering to the latest developments in energy, energy mix, and renewable energy, including the potential of hydrogen as a complementary energy storage solution, we explore a wide range of topics.

Furthermore, we discuss innovative architecture for sustainable buildings, including retrofitting aging tall structures, and explore innovative ways to improve our air, water, and coastline through nearshore biodiversity reclamation. We also delve into the subject of sustainable development through the water-energy-food nexus, recognizing the interconnectedness of these vital resources.

This volume is a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students in the fields of energy and sustainability, as well as policymakers who are interested in these critical issues. By understanding the challenges we face and the opportunities we have, we can work together to create a more sustainable and prosperous future for all.
