“…In the perspective of the conclusions mentioned above, it is possible to say that information literacy in general, but especially the green IL, can be seen as a key to the economic, social, and cultural development of communities, institutions, and even nations. Repanovici et al [53] showed through their scientometric study of the literature, and a qualitative research study, i.e., a survey, that the nearest efforts towards transforming society into a sustainably developing one should focus on educators and building their own understanding of the whole concept. The authors also demonstrated that IL influences and reinforces the ability to think in sustainability categories, and brings forth sustainable behaviors among the public.…”

“…The authors also demonstrated that IL influences and reinforces the ability to think in sustainability categories, and brings forth sustainable behaviors among the public. Finally, they suggest launching a module within the IL courses that would be devoted to informing students about the connection between the way they use their information and research skills, and the generation of carbon footprint by the information technology equipment [53]. Repanovici et al also claim that the sustainable IL is situated at the intersection of three core elements of a higher education system, namely research, curricula, and library.…”

“…Repanovici et al also claim that the sustainable IL is situated at the intersection of three core elements of a higher education system, namely research, curricula, and library. This fact, in the authors' opinion, can be regarded as a new possible research direction to be pursued in more detail in the sustainable LIS field [53]. According to Turner [52], the best place to lay emphasis on, within the range of LIS curricula, is the library management course.…”

In times of real threats to the continuity of the human civilization resulting from environmental degradation, depletion of natural resources, overpopulation, and other adverse factors, the issue of sustainable development is the subject of interest of many scientific disciplines. As a leading objective of this paper, the authors take up the topic of sustainable development seen through the lenses of the library and information science, which is considered with special attention paid to its economic, social, environmental, and cultural dimensions. In addition to reviewing the most important literature, the authors also explore the subject matter from a quantitative perspective. As a result of the research, the authors identify the key areas that affect libraries as cultural and scientific institutions, in which work related to the sustainability concept is actively carried out. Quantitative research allowed to determine the proportions of efforts made by scientists within the previously selected areas, and to outline trends observed within those areas—that is, to identify which areas have recently been gaining importance, and which may have ceased to be exploited. The authors hope that the research results not only shed light on the landscape of world science in the subject matter, but above all, that they support contemporary researches of these fields by identifying potentially the most important works influencing the shape of particular research areas, and the identification of current trends, which are present within the mentioned areas as well. Further research directions, which are potentially worth undertaking, are also emphasized.

“…But what is green growth? There is a developed literature that defines the concept of green growth (Hallegatte & al., 2012;Smulders & al., 2014;Stoknes & Rockström, 2018) but also the concept associated with it, the green economy (Loiseau & al., 2016;Georgeson & al., 2017, Kasztelan, 2017 or various green activities or areas (Repanovici at. Al 2021;Polonsky & Rosenberger, 2001;Hsiao & at., 2018).…”

Economic growth is linked to the development and use of natural resources. With the emergence of the idea of sustainable development, the idea of green economy or bioeconomy is born, based on better management of natural resources, through the use of environmentally friendly economic instruments. The new objectives of sustainable development are related to both water protection and responsible consumption and production. This makes the transition from the green economy to the blue bioeconomy. This article examines the link between the blue bioeconomy and the goals of sustainable development in the light of new environmental policies and regulations. The conclusions are that the blue bioeconomy, complementing the green economy, can ensure the decoupling of economic development from the intensive use of non-renewable resources and that together they can lead to a better achievement of sustainable development goals.

“…Environmental education is among the important education for achieving sustainable development (Biplap & Rajidulhoque, 2015;Karpan et al, 2020;Shutaleva et al, 2020). The Ministry of Education Malaysia has taken steps to integrate environmental education into the curriculum in schools; one of them is through the Moral Education curriculum (Haliza, 2017).…”

Environmental issues are often debated in the mass media, thus indicating the need for improvement in existing efforts, primarily through the education system. It is common knowledge that environmental education is a curriculum integrated into several subjects, one of which is Moral Education. In addition, environmental sustainability is one of the elements across the curriculum applied in the Moral Education. This shows that the application of this education is crucial in helping to realize the goals of the Moral Education curriculum in line with the goals of sustainable development. Therefore, this article is presented to review the literature on students' sustainable thinking toward the environment. The researchers use the Systematic Literature Review methodology based on three stages of selecting relevant articles: identification, screening, and eligibility. The findings of this article showed that the level of sustainable thinking of students is still at a low level, while the application of environmental education is not satisfactory. This research integrated various research designs where studies were selected based on published standards. The articles used were those published from 2015 to 2022. This study selected articles using two leading databases, Scopus and Web of Science, and one supporting database, Google Scholar. This study is expected to be a source for other studies on sustainable thinking toward the environment.
