  4. 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.

  5. GOALS OF GREEN TECHNOLOGY • Sustainability - 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. • Source reduction - reducing waste and pollution by changing patterns of production and consumption. • Innovation - developing alternatives to technologies - whether fossil fuel or chemical intensive agriculture. • Viability - economic activity around technologies and products that benefit the environment, speeding their implementation and creating new careers that truly protect the planet.

  6. Existing Laws for Green Technology • Pennsylvania's (a US state) new Mercury-Free Thermostat Law • Sustainable Forestry Initiative : SFI 2005-2009 Standard is based on principles and measures that promote sustainable forest management and consider all forest values. • Wisconsin (a US state) recently enacted a law prohibiting disposal of certain electronics in landfills. • 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. • 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.

  7. Environmental Objectives in 11th Five- Year Plan • Increase forest & tree cover by 5% • Attain WHO standards of air quality in all major cities by 2011-2012. • Treat all urban waste water by 2011-2012 to clean river waters. • Increase energy efficiency by 20 percentage points by 2016-2017. • Estimated $3.6 billion has been spent for green technology in the U.S. and Europe in 2007 • Source: - Greenfile, EBSCO database.
