The assignment evaluates you; abilitv to address the practice of sustainable and Cleaner Production. it will determine your ability to identify and adopt the optimal management of engineering for a system while protecting and sustaining natural resources for future generations. You will have to create a solution addressing management of enaineering that will incorporate all aspects of sustainability from the manufacturing point of view to the application of Government regulations.
