There are 17 SDGs designed as “a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future” (https://sdgs.un.org/goals). Many of the goals such as Affordable and Clean Energy, Sustainable Cities and Communities, Climate Action, or Life on Land are aligned with articles published in BioEnergy Research. The collection of articles below contains recent research, which contribute to a better understanding of how to achieve the SDGs.
