Abstract

The accelerating impacts of climate change, resource depletion, and rapid urbanisation demand urgent and transformative responses grounded in technological innovation and sustainable practice. Green Technology & Innovation (GTI) serves as an international, peer-reviewed platform for advancing research and applied solutions that support the global transition toward low-carbon, resilient, and environmentally responsible systems. This editorial outlines the journal’s scope, interdisciplinary orientation, and commitment to fostering impactful research that bridges engineering innovation, policy relevance, and real-world implementation.
