Abstract
Around the world, wireless radio communication technologies are enabling progress across many of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), with communications engineers designing lower cost, more efficient, and reliable technologies. These transforming communication services are enhancing multiple dimensions of societal well-being, including access to education, medical support, food, and gender equity, promoting decent work alongside economic growth. However, engineers are also obliged to minimize all types of pollution in their practice, toward restoring planetary health and sustainable cities and communities. There is increasing awareness and concern about the environmental hazards and use of limited Earth resources in producing electronic goods and services.
