World Congress on Sustainable Technologies (WCST-2012): Paper Submission deadline has been extended!
The World Congress on Sustainable Technologies (WCST-2012)
is a
multidisciplinary congress, bridging efforts across the natural,
social and
engineering sciences, the environment and development
of communities. The
congress covers a wide spectrum of topics
that relate to sustainability,
which includes technical and non-technical
research areas. It also
encourages sharing new knowledge in the field
of sustainable technologies
and the environmental impacts.
The mission of WCST-2012 is to provide the
opportunities for
collaboration and reflection that have the potential to
greatly enhance
the infrastructure and capacity for conducting and applying
art,
science and technology for sustainability. The WCST bridges
the gap
between academia and industry by creating awareness of
current development
in sustainable technologies.
The topics in WCST-2012 include but are not
confined to the
following areas:
