Since, 1992 Rio Conference, the political impetus that carried the ideas of sustainable development so far and so quickly has increasingly seemed to distance it self from it s scientific and technological base. Some are now attempting to restore this base by mobilizing our technical agencies to address science, technology and sustainable development in a more systematic manner,and to institutionalize this paradigm into our long- term planning and program development.

Many of NGOs are, in fact, already operating on principles, policies, and missions that have their essential bases in S&T. But today, we want to persuade the commitment to science and technology as one essential piece of the development process. And we want to appeal you to join us in this public/private effort to move science and technology prominently into the agenda of the SASE and beyond.

Science and technology considerations are involved in virtually all facets of our 21st century foreign policy -- whether against threats to our critical infrastructure, addressing HIV/AIDs and other global infectious diseases, crop productivity, Biotechnology, Human health, protecting biodiversity, or mitigating transboundary air pollution -- science is indispensable to understanding the problems, and technology is central to their remediation.

Sustainable development is critical for creating safe and livable cities, but many developed countries and cities are at present struggling with enormous environmental issues and its improper management.For example, waste management service necessitates the development of integrated structures that are effective, long-lasting, and socially beneficial. Solid waste, which makes up the majority of waste produced by household, industrial, and commercial operation, is the subject of a majority of Waste Management practices.

Of course, science and technology alone are obviously not the sole answers -- and will never be. While complete solutions to urgent problems of health, agriculture, food security, and clean water, for example, might not always be available or practicable, development decisions made in the absence or ignorance of the best S&T advice available will be highly risky affairs.

What we most need to learn is that in the major scientific matters which now affect human destiny, one cannot safely take decisions for today unless we realize that those same decisions determine the future. This realization may not lead to the right decisions; but it might help to obviate some of the worse (ones). This national conference will provide a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, policy makers and educators to present, share, and exchange and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Sustainable Environment. The conference will feature renowned speakers representing both academia and industry who are renowned experts in sustainable development. Selected papers will be published in the conference proceeding.
