In the last twenty years, terms such as sustainable development, environmental protection, and sustainable design have been widely exploited, often without justification. Does ergonomics have a legitimate need or right to use these terms and to be the part of the process to which they refer? This paper discusses the relationship between ergonomics and the concept of sustainable development and its three elements of sustainability (environmental, social and economic), as the steps ergonomists need to take to secure and strengthen the influence in sustainability topics.

An innovative design is used for improvement in cabin ventilation of automobiles having non-AC system. Engine which is a must part of a truck is used as a suction system to create low pressure zone inside the cabin, by sucking its air for fuel combustion from cabin. High suction pressure is used as a pulling force. Closed cabin now becomes low pressure zone and atmospheric air around the cabin is pulled inside the cabin because of low pressure inside. By design, an opening is given at the front of the cabin which becomes the path of atmospheric air movement inside the cabin. Hence a cross and continuous ventilation is achieved. CFD analysis is done at different speeds considering the worst case scenario as glass windows rolled up. Result of the analysis shows significant level of ventilation is achieved without using any external energy with minimum cost involved.
