With the world coming together once again to address climate change on 1-11 November, UNFCCC COP26 Glasgow holds the promise of a more ambitious global commitment to real action.
Smart sensing has a key role to play in reaching the goal of global net zero. From electric vehicles to energy efficiencies and low-emissions mining, smart sensing is vital to the technological innovation that will drive the global net zero agenda.
Similarly, climate resilient communities rely on smart sensing. Air and water quality monitoring, sustainable agriculture, natural disaster preparation and resilient infrastructure are all underpinned by smart sensing.
As a consortium of leading research universities, the NSW Smart Sensing Network (NSSN) is uniquely positioned to lend its voice to a global discourse on innovative technological solutions to monitoring and mitigating climate change.
Recognising the full breadth of expertise across the Network, the NSSN Smart Sensing and Climate Change Roundtable will bring together the thought leadership found in the NSSN Ambassadors Group together with leading climate change experts across the Network to explore smart sensing solutions across the following UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):
- SDG 7 – Affordable & Clean Energy
- SDG 11 – Sustainable Cities & Communities
- SDG 12 – Responsible Consumption & Production
- SDG 13 – Climate Action
- SDG14 – Life Below Water
- SDG 15 – Life on Land
