GREEN TECHNOLOGIES: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Keywords:
Green technology, sustainable development, renewable energy, ecAbstract
Green technologies, often referred to as clean or sustainable
technologies, represent a crucial step toward balancing economic growth with
environmental responsibility. In the face of global challenges such as climate change,
rapid industrialization, and the depletion of natural resources, the adoption of eco
friendly innovations has become more urgent than ever. These technologies encompass
a wide range of solutions, including renewable energy systems, waste reduction
strategies, energy-efficient devices, smart city initiatives, and sustainable production
methods. The application of green technologies not only reduces carbon emissions and
pollution but also opens new economic opportunities
