Preface Now more than ever, there has been an increasing awareness of the unsustainability abil ity traj trajecto ectory ry our soc society iety is curr currentl ently y foll followi owing. ng. Occu Occurrin rring g sim simulta ultaneou neously, sly, ther theree have been numero numerous us proclamations, proclamations, internati international onal meetings, and efforts to assess the current state of affairs and begin to design new technologies, policies, and businesss models aimed at advancing the goal of a sustainable busines sustainable future. With this in mind, there is an obvious need to continue to manage and remediate legacy environmental environ mental challenges from nutrient enrichment of surface waters to groundwater contamination. At the heart of meeting these objectives is training the next generation of engineers, and environmental engineers in particular, to have a deep understanding understan ding of the fundamentals of the discipline while also possessing a keen awarene awar eness ss of sus sustaina tainabil bility. ity. Reor Reorient ienting ing the focu focuss envi environ ronmen mental tal engi enginee neerin ring g is the very motivation for this book – providing both the fundamental training to solve environmental problems as well as the broad understanding of sustainability. As we move from the stark and egregious environmental problems that gave rise to the field of environmental engineering more than five decades ago to the more mo re com comple plex x and glo global bal cha challe llenge ngess of tod today, ay, the fie field ld of env enviro ironme nmenta ntall eng engine ineerering must evolve as well. Looking to the future, there is a clear need for environmental engineers who are able to collaborate across disciplines and communicate broadly to the scientific community, policymakers, and the public. Sustainability presents many opportunities for environmental engineers to evolve from those who characterize, manage, and remediate existing environmental problems to those who are designing and developing new technologies that address sustainability challenges while avoiding unintended consequences. On this journey, it is impe im pera rativ tivee to ho hono norr th thee gr grea eatt le legac gacy y of th this is di disc scip ipli line ne – th thee cr crea eati tivi vity, ty, pa pass ssio ion, n, an and d dedi de dica cati tion on fo forr pu publ blic ic go good od – an and d co cont ntin inue ue to se serv rvee in th thee un uniq ique ue ro role le of be bene nefit fitti ting ng people and the planet as we move to face emerging challenges and design a more sustainable future. This book is motivated by the discussion that is evolving from one centered on describing, characterizing, quantifying, and monitoring current environmental problems to one that is focused on the design and development of innovative new solutions. Innovation requires enhanced skills and tools beyond the fundamental and important environmental engineering curriculum including the ability to think creatively and critically, to work in interdisciplinary teams, and to consider the entire system. As shown in the table below, the very nature of the challenges faced by environmental engineers is changing. 20th Century Environmental Issues
