Engineers have to operate within an increasingly complex set of constraints, and therefore must be capable of dealing with a range of challenges. The panel is based on some very straightforward principles: it is about living within Earth’s finite limits and resources, helping everyone on the planet to achieve an acceptable quality of life; acting as stewards of the environment for future generations; dealing with complexity; and handling the many trade-offs which have to be made. This panel will discuss how Engineers contribute to the society in the sustainable growth of a nation.
