This Keynote speech focus on the causes of various Environmental pollution in terms of Natural resource uses, Urbanization, and Technology development during Industrial Revolution IR1.0, IR2.0, and IR3.0. Non-renewable energy sources, coal, oil, and gas, are the most significant contributors to climate change. A survey says that it accounts for over 75 percent of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions and approximately 90 percent of all carbon dioxide (CO₂) productions. Greenhouse gas emissions blanket the Earth, trapping the sun's heat and the roots of global warming and climate change. It causes a rising temperature, storms, drought, a rising ocean, loss of various species, inadequate food, many health risks, and poverty. It has become clear that our pattern of life is not sustainable, as we remove and exploit naturally available resources and a system more quickly than they manage to recover. It necessitates much knowledge and support among countries, companies, and people. This keynote comprises important elements of Sustainability, sustainable materials, and manufacturing, Industrial Ecology. It focuses on United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 12 (UNSDG 12), which aims to develop sustainable consumption and production patterns and ensure their attractiveness, viability, and practicability. Sustainable consumption necessitates that services, and related products that respond to basic needs and bring people a better quality of life. This type of consumption lessens the use of natural resources and toxic materials.

Moreover, it reduces the pollution a product releases during manufacture and service and converses the resources for future generations. Sustainable production is developing and creating a product and its environmentally friendly service. It conserves and preserves energy resources, is economically viable, safe and healthy for employees and consumers, and socially and creatively fulfilling. The most recent response to this challenge is the idea of the circular economy (CE), defined by some as a decoupling of economic growth from resource consumption by keeping materials at their highest quality in a closed loop. A circular economy calls for extending the product life cycle and the subsequent reuse and recycling of materials and products.

Furthermore, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and environmental pollution, as well as energy, water, and raw material consumption, are indispensable for SDG 12. This talk also enlightens how Education is crucial to achieving SDG-12. Eminence education contributes to dropping waste generation through presenting and practicing the four 'Rs' - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover. Keeping the public informed and educated provides the necessary tools to live harmoniously with nature for sustainable lifestyles. Developing countries' scientific and technological capacities can be strengthened through education efforts, moving towards more sustainable consumption and production patterns.
