Green technology aims to develop and apply technologies that are environmentally friendly and resource efficient. It covers areas like green chemistry, green nanotechnology, green building, green IT, and green energy. The goals are sustainability, reducing waste and pollution, innovation, and economic viability. Green chemistry uses principles like prevention of waste, safer solvents and materials. Green nanotechnology minimizes environmental risks of nanotechnology. Green buildings use renewable materials and energy generation. Green IT improves energy efficiency of computing. Green energy develops power from renewable sources like solar and wind. Green marketing considers environmental impacts in the 4Ps of product, price, place and promotion. The triple bottom line model evaluates financial, social and environmental impacts and is linked to corporate social responsibility

5. Sustainable Forestry Initiative : SFI 2005-2009 Standard is based on principles and measures that promote sustainable forest management and consider all forest values.

6. Wisconsin (a US state) recently enacted a law prohibiting disposal of certain electronics in landfills.

7. Taiwan passed a legislation that targets significant renewable energy generating capacity, that is expected to increase investment in solar photovoltaics and other approaches to sustainable power.

8. Environmental Protection Agency has sent the White House a proposed finding that carbon dioxide is a danger to public health, a step that could trigger a clampdown on emissions of greenhouse gases.What is Green technology ?Green Technology is the application of the environmental science to conserve the natural environment and resources, and to curb the negative impacts of human involvement.The field of "green technology" encompasses a continuously evolving group of methods and materials, from techniques for generating energy to non-toxic cleaning products.

9. Goals of Green technology Sustainability - meeting present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

10. "Cradle to cradle" design - ending the "cradle to grave" cycle of manufactured products, by creating products that can be fully reclaimed or re-used.

11. Source reduction - reducing waste and pollution by changing patterns of production and consumption.

12. Innovation - developing alternatives to technologies - whether fossil fuel or chemical intensive agriculture.

13. Viability - economic activity around technologies and products that benefit the environment, speeding their implementation and creating new careers that truly protect the planet.Areas of Green technologyGreen Chemistry
