i. Sustainable Development Goals: 

12 Sustainable Development Goals : 

Quality Education.

Sustainable Development Goals :

There are 17 Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs)

Goal 3 : Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.

Other goals : Include ending poverty , improving equity , and protecting the planet.

Modul Name : Sustainable in Engineering :

• Engineering solution from sustainability perspectives :

Sustainable engineering is a way of designing and creating things that meet our needs without harming the environment or depleting natural resources. 

Sustainable engineers focus on minimizing waste, using renewable energy sources, reducing pollution and creating long-lasting, efficient systems that can be enjoyed by future generations. 

The importance of sustainable engineering comes from the industry’s aim to create a better world. This is done by considering the well-being of both people and the planet in their engineering practices.

• Environmental and sustainability :

Sustainable development aims at promoting the kind of development that minimizes environmental problems and meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of the future generation to meet their own needs . 

1. The targets to be achieved by 2030 are as followed :

2. Implement the 10 years framework of programmers on sustainable consumption & production , all countries taking action , with developed countries taking the lead , taking into account the development & capabilities of developing countries .

3. achieve the sustainable management &efficient use of natural resources .

4. The environmentally sound management of chemicals & levels &wastes generation through prevention , reduction , recycling & reuse .

5. Promote public procurement practices  that are sustainable , in accordance with national policies .

6. Support developing countries to strengthen their scientific & technological capacity to move towards more sustainable patterns of consumption & production .

7.  Develop & implement tools to monitor sustainable developments impacts for sustainable tourism that creates jobs & promotes local culture & products .

   • Government of India Initiatives :

Nation Policy on Biofuels was the Ministry of New Renewable Energy to promote use of biofuels in the country . This is envisaged & to contributed towards building energy security , mitigating climate change , as well as creating new employment opportunities .

National Clean Energy Fund was created in 2010-11 to promote research & facilities investments in projects on development of clean energy technologies . The fund was created by levying a clean energy cess , (Rs.50) on over the year , as the cess levied has been steadily increased Rs.100 per ton in 2014 , Rs.200 per ton in 2015 , Rs.400 per ton in 2016 budget . This show the country's commitment towards adopting clean technologies & ensuring sustainable consumption & production patterns.

ii. Life Cycle Assessment 

A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is defined as the systematic analysis of the potential environmental impacts of production or services during their entire life cycle .

• One of the most common methodologies for quantifying sustainability is life cycle assessment  Three pillars of LCA :

1. environmental 

2. economics

3. social.

1. • Some pointes of LCA :

1.LCA is a comprehensive analysis tool that examines the environmental impact .

2.LCA consider the entire of life cycle , from raw material extraction to end-of-life disposal or recycling . 

3. This holistic approach evaluates environmental impacts across various stages , including resource consumption ,             emission , and waste generation . 

4. By dissecting each phase , LCA highlights critical environmental hotspots , pinpointing areas of significant impact . 

5. LCA provides valuable data and insights that support the decision making process.

1. • Sustainable product design :

1. Business leverage LCA insights for sustainable product design.

2. Craft regulations.

3. Make informed  choices.

4. LCA promotes transparency by quantifying & communicating environmental impacts in a 

5. standardized & understandable format.

6. LCA is a dynamic process that encourage continuous improvements. Through ongoing analysis , organized can identify opportunities for reducing impacts & strive for more sustainable practices over time .

7. LCA is a compass that guides us towards a sustainable future . Ecoinvent supports LCA by providing an extensive database of thousands of processes and materials across various industries . 

8. These data sets provide a foundation for LCA studies & informed decision - making  

iii. Carbon Footprint and Embodied Energy
