Abstract: With the increasing ecological environment problems such as soil erosion and wind and sandification in recent years, mankind has realized the necessity and the importance of protecting the environment, and has begun to study this problem continuously, hoping to find an effective solution to the ecological environment management, so that human development can maintain a balance with nature. In this environment, many disciplines have come into being, and soil and water protection is one of them. Soil erosion (also known as soil erosion) is a global environmental problem, and it is of great significance to control soil erosion as one of the measures to improve the overall ecological environment. “Digital soil and water culture” has become the inevitable trend of the modernization and information development of soil and water, and “computer-aided design technology” as its component is being widely used in soil and water science research, planning, design, construction and management. Therefore, through the analysis of the examples of computer-aided design applied accurately in soil and water protection drawing, this paper aims to further improve and pay attention to the research of the basic technology of “digital soil and water protection”, so as to lay the foundation for the comprehensive meeting of the “digital information” society. The computer-aided design has great advantages in the monitoring of large-scale ecological resources and environment, and has the advantages of fast, intuitive and wide monitoring area, so this paper explores the application of computer-aided design in soil and water conservation assessment.

Abstract: Sustainable finance is one of the latest financial ideas to solve contemporary global financial problems with an entrepreneurial spirit. This research aims to map international level sustainable finance studies indexed by Scopus using a bibliometric overview. The method used is bibliometrics and data analysis and visualization using the analyze search results feature on Scopus and VOSViewer applications. Research data of 152 documents were published from 1992 to 2019 obtained from the Scopus database. The results showed that the most productive countries, research institutions and individual researchers in the publication of sustainable finance studies were the United Kingdom; Rheinisch-Westfalische Technische Hochschule Aachen; and Haigh, M. The most amount of funding sponsors in international publications in sustainable finance studies was the National Natural Science Foundation of China. The most intensive subject areas and publication sources in sustainable finance studies were Business, Management and Accounting, and Journal of Sustainable Finance and Investment. There were five collaborative researchers’ group patterns. This research proposes a convergence axis classification consisting of sustainable finance studies to characterize the body of knowledge generated from three decades of studies: Bank, Country, Finance, Sustainable, and Policy, abbreviated as BCFSP themes.

Abstract: This year, Journal of Environmental Science and Sustainable Development (JESSD) is proud to hold its second international virtual symposium, featuring world-class speakers and editors worldwide. We were incredibly honored to have invited Prof. Christopher Silver, Ph.D., FAICP from College of Design, Construction, and Planning, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, USA; Mari E. Mulyani, D.Phil. from University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom; Prof. Rotimi Williams Olatunji from School of Communication, Lagos State University, Nigeria; Prof. Svetlana Drobyazko from Open International University of Human Development, Kyiv, Ukraine; Prof. Marinela Panayotova from Departement. of Chemistry, University of Mining and Geology, Bulgaria; Anita Bernardus from APRIL Group; Ir. Maya Tamimi, M.Sc. from Unilever Indonesia; Dr. Yuki M. A. Wardhana from PT Penjaminan Infrastruktur Indonesia; and Dr. Taufan Madiasworo, ST, MT from Deputy Director of Integration on Settlements Infrastructure Management, Directorate General of Human Settlements, Ministry of Public Works and Housing. The symposium was held in virtual format due to related restrictions during COVID-19 pandemic. I appreciate everyone’s participation in the second JESSD Symposium: International Symposium of Earth, Energy, Environmental Science, and Sustainable Development, despite the restrictive situation caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic. Instead of being postponed, this symposium was conducted virtually to response to emerging issues mainly related to earth science, energy, environmental science, and sustainability. Moreover, this symposium also facilitates the publications of qualified research on COVID-19 to contribute to the global response towards the pandemic situation. This symposium is slightly different with previous symposium and conference held last year. By making the best use of development in telecommunication platforms, we are able to gather virtually to share our insights and progresses covering numerous subjects ranging from: the broad earth science, energy, and environmental science, to more specific topics on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the special issues of COVID-19 Research as well as Community Engagement for Better Environment. This symposium utilized Zoom and Youtube, a widely known cloud-based video conferencing tool, as its telecommunication platform.

This symposium utilized Zoom, a widely known cloud-based video conferencing tool, as its telecommunication platform. The symposium was held on 28–30 September 2020. Committees are based in School of Environmental Science, Universitas Indonesia, Jakarta, Indonesia. The symposium consists of plenary sessions and parallel sessions. The plenary sessions include keynote speech from various experts in related fields. The topics of the plenary sessions are considered purposeful in today’s agenda, such as life cycle assessment of biofuels, environmental governance in developing countries, smallholder palm oil and sustainability, collaborative scheme of solid waste management, alternative financing for waste management, plastic recycling, disaster management, and many more. Meanwhile, the parallel sessions facilitate the authors/presenters to discuss about their research in a smaller group based on the topic grouping. Each author/presenter was given up to 9 minutes for presentation and 3 minutes for question and answer. Quick questions were addressed right after each presentation, but longer questions were compiled and discussed at the end of the session. The session was wrapped up by the moderator in his/her closing remarks. The participants (presenters) are coming from 25 different countries all around the world, including: Indonesia, India, Japan, Bulgaria, Russian Federation, Ukraine, Pakistan, Poland, Colombia, Iran, Romania, United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, Finland, Vietnam, Philippines, Nigeria, Sri Lanka, Netherlands, Morocco, Thailand, United Kingdom, Republic of Tajikistan, Brazil, and Ethiopia. Participant (presenter) numbers are 270. We are glad that we received lots of submissions from the symposium and selected a bunch of high-quality papers and compiled them into the proceedings after reviewed them using the double-blind peer review procedure. The symposium is considered successful. Signal loss and some technical issues happened during parallel sessions but had been well and quickly addressed by technical assistants, without causing any significant delay. I express my deep gratitude to the Chairman, all distinguished keynote speakers, committees, reviewers, and all the participants, for their time, hard work, and contribution to support this symposium during this challenging time. I would like to take this opportunity also to express my gratitude for our sponsors, Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI), PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk, and PT Larus Birus Utama, for sponsoring the main events, as well as APIKI Indonesia Network (Jaringan Ahli Perubahan Iklim dan Kehutanan Indonesia) and BMKG (Badan Meteorologi, Klimatologi, dan Geofisika) for conducting the joined session. Last but not the least, we send our sincere thanks to the IOP publisher for publishing the proceedings.
