Editorial: Food water energy for all

Abstract

This issue is by no means a comprehensive account of all the issues related the Managing Critical Issues: Food, Water and Energy, and, given the nature of the topic of the special issue, this was never the intent. Contributions for this special issue have come from litterateurs, engineers, social scientists, development specialists and practitioners. The richness of the articles is derived from this diversity as we see the same issues as they are viewed from different lenses. It is hoped that readers will be provoked to think differently, using a systems thinking ecosystem approach, about these critical resources, keeping in mind the bigger picture of the constraints of Spaceship Earth.
