Abstract
The rapid growth of technology has enhanced wireless communication with faster data transfer, lower latency, and improved energy efficiency. However, the environmental impact cannot be overlooked. Wireless device production, usage, and disposal contribute significantly to e-waste, greenhouse gas emissions, and resource depletion. IR5.0 offers an opportunity to address these issues with sustainable practices like renewable energy, energy-efficient hardware, and eco-friendly manufacturing. It can revolutionize industries like agriculture, healthcare, and transportation through real-time data transfer and automation, reducing resource consumption and emissions. Achieving sustainability in IR5.0 requires collaboration among policymakers, industry leaders, and consumers, advocating for regulations, investments, and demand for sustainable practices. The 'IR5.0 Eco-Future' initiative stresses the collaborative approach needed for a sustainable future by integrating eco-friendly practices into technology development.
