Executive Summary
The main focus of this paper is to discuss about the role of the engineers in Sustainable
development. The report will briefly discuss about the way sustainable development can be
achieved. Sustainable development is the development in the present without compromising with
the future needs. The report further discusses about the way data is being collected and he way
data is being analyzed. In this report data, analysis is done quantitatively. Secondary data is
being used to prepare the report. Further, the report contains a Gantt chart that illustrates the
period. Finally, the report concludes with stating the need of the sustainable development among
the engineers.

Introduction
Sustainable development refers to the growth that meets the present requirement without
affecting the need of the generation. For an engineer, sustainable system is a system that either
changes in a slow rate or in equilibrium. The concept of sustainability is described best with the
help of natural ecosystem. This is described with the natural ecosystem as these changes slowly
in a closed loop. Engineers supports at each step of the sustainable development model :
• Number of waste generated can be reduced by processing resources in a closed loop. This
increases the efficiency of the resources.
• Resources can be preserved by recycling and reusing the designing. This lessens the impact on
the environment throughout their life cycle.
• Goods transport heavily pollutes the environment. In order to minimize the effects we can use
transport way that will cause less impact
• Developing of energy resources affects the atmosphere adversely. The effects caused to the
atmosphere can be reduced by efficiently use of energies and by using products from non-fossil
resources.
