Toxic elements are released

Green Technology Technology that is considered environmentally

friendly based on its production process or supply

chain

A means of energy production that is less harmful

to the environment than more traditional ways of

generating energy, such as burning fossil fuels.

Conserve natural resources and the environment –

Sustainable development

Innovative technology

GOALS OF GREEN TECHNOLOGY Sustainability

"Cradle to cradle" design

Source reduction

Innovation

Viability

SUSTAINABILITY Meeting the needs of society in ways that can

continue indefinitely into the future without damaging or depleting natural resources. In short, meeting present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

“CRADLE TO CRADLE DESIGN” Ending the "cradle to grave" cycle of manufactured

products, by creating products that can be fully reclaimed or re-used.

Ex: paper,plastic,can,

battery,clothing

etc.,.

SOURCE REDUCTION Reducing waste and pollution by changing patterns of

production and consumption.

Examples: Fuels , Waste and Energy consumption etc.,.

INNOVATIONS Developing alternatives to technologies - whether

fossil fuel or chemical intensive agriculture - that have been demonstrated to damage health and the environment.

VIABILITY

Creating a centre of economic activity around technologies and products that benefit the environment, speeding their implementation and creating new careers that truly protect the planet.
