Technologies for a Sustainable Future
Tuesday | October 31, 2023 | 15:45 - 17:00
Climate change poses a major threat to the world population across many dimensions, including coastal and inland flooding, wildfires, elevated temperatures, food security and increased storm intensity. Sustainability is of increasing importance as we seek the benefits of circular economy with increasing life cycle energy and environmental efficacy. IEEE is responding by supporting the development of technologies to measure, adapt and mitigate the effects of climate change and address global sustainability using its full range of capabilities, including convening researchers and practitioners at conferences and events, supporting the dissemination of knowledge through world class publications, enabling the development of standards, engaging with policy makers, and engaging in educational activities spanning K12, the general public, media, practitioners and researchers distributed across the planet in the full topical breadth of 47 Societies and Councils, engaging the full capabilities of the IEEE to support the engineering and technology community in this critical effort.
