It is widely accepted that environmental sustainability is a critical for human life (especially for future generations). The practice of environmental sustainability attempts to provide solutions for rapidly depleting renewable/unrenewable resources and protecting the environment long-term. Modeling and simulation is continues to be an effective approach for better characterizing the real world and thus supporting practical policy-formulating and decision-making needs. Due to the complexity of Earth’s environmental system, which includes massive dynamic chemical, biological, and physical processes and complicated human activities, it is impossible to develop an all-inclusive models which represent all local and global environmental interactions. Therefore, it is essential to integrate knowledge from multiple disciplines when modeling Earth’s environmental system. The methods, theories, and practices of interdisciplinary modeling (such as integrated environmental modeling, collaborative modeling, and participatory modeling) require continual improvement to meet these challenges. Studies about Future Earth (FE), Virtual Geographic Environment (VGE), E-Science and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)-based modeling are all important and effective approaches for exploring the environment’s past, present and future; these studies have also promoted trends towards sharing, reusing and integrating models, data and other modeling-related resources in an open web environment, which can support researchers’ communication and collaborative work. Moreover, the study of modeling for environmental sustainability needs to take the social barriers into consideration as well.
