Sustainability has become a mainstream subject that attempts to blend together social science with civic engineering and environmental science with the technology of the future.
The sustainable development network consists of professionals who think, act and work globally.
It is not yet clear what our sustainable future will look like but with emerging technologies and the improvement of older cleaner fuel sources, many people now look to a post fossil fuel world – including businesses.
If you were wondering where to learn about the latest sustainable trends, meet like-minded professionals or showcase your sustainability-focused project – well, wonder no more!
