摘要
Sustainability in environment and energy is the watchword of the 21st century.The excessive growth in fossil energy consumption and the ensuing acceleration of global climate change as well as related air and water pollution have attracted great attention,on the view of national security globally.Environmental sustainability has recently emerged as an energy policy issue,requiring the rapid development of science and technology to achieve the goal of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.The sustainability challenges faced by the world are complex and involve multiple interdependent areas.The utilization of green energy has been required to attempt to change the current energy and environment issues.With the rapid progress in advanced nanotechnologies,nanostructures and corresponding nanomaterials start to play a vital role in solving critical problems,particularly in energy and environmental fields.Indeed,advanced materials and green catalysis are being more and more important in solving the energy and environmental issues.Nanomaterials as building units have brought a unique opportunity for advancing science and technology to create updated products meeting the global demands of environmental remediation and sustainable energy development.
