As part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the United Nations established a set of 17 global goals known as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015. With the ultimate goal of advancing sustainable development, these objectives seek to solve the different social, economic, and environmental issues that the globe faces. Goal 5, which focuses on attaining gender equality and empowering all women and girls, is one of the main objectives of the SDGs.
In order to achieve a future that is peaceful, wealthy, and sustainable, gender equality is recognized as a fundamental human right in Goal 5 of the Sustainable Development Goals. It includes a range of gender inequality issues, such as uneven access to healthcare, education, employment prospects, and political engagement.
The SDGs include a number of objectives and indicators must be met in order to accomplish Goal 5:
Putting an end to all sorts of violence and discrimination against women and girls.
Getting rid of damaging customs like female genital mutilation and child marriage.
Guaranteeing women and girls equitable access to healthcare and education.
Encouraging women's involvement in decision-making and economic empowerment.
Acknowledging and appreciating household chores and unpaid care.
Guaranteeing equitable access to natural resources, land, and property.
In addition to being morally required, gender equality is essential for sustainable development. Women and girls are better able to support their families, communities, and economies when they have equitable access to economic, healthcare, and educational opportunities. greater societal results, such as decreased rates of poverty and greater child health and education, are also brought about by empowering women.
The commercial sector, governments, civic society, and people must work together to achieve gender equality. It entails combating ingrained societal norms and prejudices, advocating for laws that uphold women's rights, and funding initiatives that give girls and women more power.

Carbon Footprint and Embodied Energy:
Foam Board:
Length = 0.27 m
Width = 0.2 m
Thickness = 0.008 m
Volume of foam board = Length x Width x Thickness
= 0.27 x 0.2 x 0.008
= 0.000432 m3
Density of foam board = 62 kg/m3
Mass of foam board = Density x Volume
= 62 x 0.000432
= 0.026784 kg
Unit embodied energy of foam board = 85 MJ/kg
Embodied energy of foam board = Mass x Unit embodied energy
= 0.026784 x 85
= 2.27664 MJ
Motor Clamp:
Weight = 0.024 kg
Quantity = 4
Total weight = 0.024 x 4 = 0.096 kg
Unit embodied energy of motor clamp = 153 MJ/kg
Embodied energy of motor clamp = Total weight x Unit embodied energy
= 0.096 x 153
= 14.688 MJ
Nuts and Bolts:
Quantity = 10
Weight = 0.003 kg
Total weight = 0.003 x 10 = 0.03 kg
Unit embodied energy of motor clamp = 153 MJ/kg
Embodied energy of motor clamp = Total weight x Unit embodied energy
= 0.03 x 153
= 4.59 MJ
