A new journal, Energy & Environmental Science, will be launched in summer 2008 by RSC Publishing.

The announcement came today at the MRS Fall meeting in Boston, USA, where RSC Publishing staff are busy spreading the news.

'The challenges relating to energy and environmental science that face the world today are complex,' said Dr Robert Parker, Managing Director of RSC Publishing. 'From alternative fuels to environmental impacts, climate change to energy conversion and storage - research in the chemical sciences underpins all the work that is so important to the future of our world. RSC Publishing recognises the significance of this area by launching Energy & Environmental Science.' 

The journal will link all aspects of the chemical sciences by publishing research relating to energy conversion and storage, alternative fuel technologies, and environmental science. It will have monthly issues containing topical reviews and original research as communications and full papers. 

By recognising the complexity of issues and challenges relating to energy and environmental science, it is expected that the journal will provide a forum for work of an interdisciplinary nature across both the (bio) chemical sciences and chemical engineering disciplines. 

From launch, the latest issue of Energy & Environmental Science will be made freely available to all readers via the website. Free access to previous issues of the journal will be available following a simple registration process. 

能源和环境问题引起了全球的普遍关注。好像也就在今年，Wiley系统宣告了一个新杂志（Ａｎｇｅｗ的sister journal，专门讨论环境，能源相关的问题）.现在RSC也来了这样类似一个。
