    AIoT in Environmental Sustainability
    (IGI Global, 2025) Rushda Sharf, Yusra Sharf
    To address the majority of environmental sustainability issues, like transportation, energy, water management, and biodiversity, artificial intelligence (AI) has grown in importance. The primary focus areas in energy are area neural networks, expert systems, fuzzy logic models, and pattern recognition. This chapter assesses how the use of AI could improve the environment by reducing the effects of agriculture, climate change, water resources, weather forecasting, ocean health, and disaster resilience. The impact of AI on the environment and its sustainable applications are examined in this chapter using qualitative analysis. With an emphasis on AI's role in advancing environmental sustainability, the chapter's main goal is to identify applications of AI for environmentally friendly practices. It can help stakeholders understand international initiatives to improve environmental sustainability by utilizing AI.

    Biofuel consumption and global climate change: Solutions and challenges
    (Elsevier, 2023) Rahil Akhtar Usmani
    The issue of climate change is a continuous topic of debate. The emission of greenhouse gasses is the reason for climate change. These gasses include CO2, CH4, O3, NO, and NO2 and small amount of a water vapor. The greenhouse gas effect is a warming effect responsible to rise in atmospheric average temperature. To achieve desired level of emission reduction, all of the transport modes will need to reduce their emissions in every region of the world. The potential for expansion in the use of biomass-based fuels will depend on biofuel production potential and its sustainability. In this work, I discuss a few of these critical issues. Biomass has the property to transform into a different range of fuels including solid, liquid and gaseous forms. Liquid biomass fuels are also known as biofuels are the most studied option for their possible use in the transport sector. The bioethanol is considered as the most accepted fuel for the transport use. Bioethanol can easily be integrated with current engine technology and can stop atmospheric pumping of new carbon. The study reinforces that biofuel is one of the important tools to mitigate transport-based greenhouse gas emissions but also has quantity and sustainability-based limitations. The holistic consideration of (3E), i.e., Efficiency, Environment and Economy are needed to incorporate in all the approaches of biofuel production and consumption. The decarbonized of supply chain is achieved by considering direct and indirect land use change and feedstock production with BECCS hence, could mitigate the climate change.
