Preamble
Major current environmental issues are climate change,
pollution, environmental degradation and resource
depletion. Sustainability is the key to preventing or
reducing the effect of environmental issues. Environmental
sustainability is the process of making sure current
processes of interaction with the environment are pursued
with the idea of keeping the environment as pristine as
naturally possible based on ideal-seeking behavior. The
key theme for the conference will be ‘Emerging
Technologies for Sustainable Environment’ - we firmly
believe we can move beyond talk and ideas to
implementing practical solutions. The Conference is
designed with an emphasis on engineers and scientists
from both India and overseas, practicing across
Government, industry, community and academic sectors.
This Conference will be a forum to reflect on the
increasing role that engineers and scientists play in
delivering sustainable solutions in engineering projects and
across a wide range of activities. It will also highlight the
processes and techniques to simplify the complex nature of
implementing sustainability. These issues are highly
topical and as such have already attracted strong support
from government, community and industry. Both
theoretical and practical aspects of sustainability will be
discussed.
A number of key national and international leaders in
various facets of sustainability will participate and address
the Conference. There are many complex and varied issues
we face on local, national and international scales and this
conference intend to provide a forum for people to
showcase their solutions.
