Although this approach has never been used before, mathematics of uncertainty is well suited to exploring these topics due to the lack of accurate data available. The authors place several scientific studies in a mathematical setting to pave the way for future research on issues of sustainability, climate change, human trafficking and modern slavery to using a wide range of mathematical techniques. Moreover, the book ranks countries in terms of their achievement of not only the SDGs, but in particular those SDGs pertinent to climate change, human trafficking, and modern slavery, and highlights the deficiencies in the foster care system that lead to human trafficking. As such it is an excellent reference resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics and the social sciences, as well as for researchers and teachers. 410 0$aStudies in Systems, Decision and Control,$x2198-4190 ;$v299 606 $aComputational intelligence 606 $aEnvironmental engineering 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aBioremediation 606 $aEnvironmental education 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aComputational Intelligence 606 $aEnvironmental Engineering/Biotechnology 606 $aEnvironmental and Sustainability Education 606 $aDevelopment Studies 615 0$aComputational intelligence. 615 0$aEnvironmental engineering. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aBioremediation. 615 0$aEnvironmental education. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 14$aComputational Intelligence. 615 24$aEnvironmental Engineering/Biotechnology. 615 24$aEnvironmental and Sustainability Education. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 676 $a306.3 700 $aMordeson$b John N$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$063000 702 $aMathew$b Sunil$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483242403321 996 $aSustainable Development Goals: Analysis by Mathematics of Uncertainty$92854552 997 $aUNINA
