Dear Carmen and Enrique, Thank you for your holiday greetings. I am glad to know that you and your children are in good health and productive. I am now almost 94. Considering that astronomical number, I am doing quite well. To maintain my health, I exercise daily in our gymnasium. Wishing you and your family health and happiness,

 

Sincerely, John

 

 

With this enthusiastic statement from one of our quintessential mentors, in this issue we feature contributions in the technology and its relationship with humanities. In this issue we seek to also recognize the mentorship capacity of Dr. María del Carmen Durán, since in all the articles her students and now academic collaborators are the first authors. She has been the creative soul that has been supporting us in this decade.

 

As mentioned in the first issue of this journal, it has the support of two academic networks, the International Network of Environmental Sciences and the Network for Environmental Quality Analysis in Mexico, since in both there are colleagues from all over the world and This internationalism is vital in seeking solutions to the increasingly acute problems facing humanity and the living beings that accompany us on our planet, as well as to the integrity of the planet itself. The fact that the COVID-19 pandemic has not been resolved two years after its appearance indicates the enormous need for collaboration between all human beings on Earth and from all branches of knowledge.

 

For this reason, all those original contributions that precisely propose interdisciplinary solutions to the problems facing our society are welcome to this magazine.

 

 

And, again, welcome to this forum of fraternal networks:
