Technological Sustainability, a new Emerald journal podcast

Emerald Publishing is proud to announce the launch of our latest journal Technological Sustainability (TECHS). Along with its sister journal, Social Responsibility Journal (SRJ), TECHS is an official journal of the Social Responsibility Research Network, or SRRNet.

Interdisciplinary in its scope, the journal seeks to encompass the full range of theoretical, methodological and substantive debates in the area of technological or scientific applications addressing sustainability.

Editor in Chief Shahla Seifi speaks to us about the importance of the subject matter, the aims and scope of the journal, and why she thinks a journal on this subject is long overdue.
