Choose a Sustainable Development Goal that is connected to the environment. Explore the databases below for a data fact on your
chosen SDG. Learn about the data and pick a data point that should inspire the society to take action. Create a poster on the data
point, and write a short narrative on why this data point is important and how it affects or should affect engineering practice.

Share your poster (and narrative) to a social media platform of your choice. Take a screen shot of the post, paste it onto this
document and submit via the Cardinal Edge submission link for WS 1.3.
