Other chapters include an analysis of the impact of information and communication technology on the elimination of poverty, a study on the use of artificial intelligence and automation in sustainable development research, a look at fostering sustainable growth in start-up enterprises, and more.

Other sustainablity issues are considered as well, including integrating sustainable methods for climate-smart agriculture, sustainable practices to deal with wastes from religious practices (such as flowers and floral arrangements), sustainable and circular healthcare waste management techniques, sustainable urban development innovations for energy solutions, such as introducing wind trees that serve as micro-turbines spinning on a vertical axis, and more.

The volume also highlights the importance of sustainable development in higher education and the importance of promoting sustainable societal impact through education systems for long-term impact.
