Green Technology

Environmental technology (abbreviated as envirotech) or green technology (abbreviated as greentech) or clean technology (abbreviated as cleantech) is the application of the environmental science to conserve the natural environment and resources, and to curb the negative impacts of human involvement. Sustainable development is the core of environmental technologies. When applying sustainable development as a solution for environmental issues, the solutions need to be socially equitable, economically viable, and environmentally sound.

Green Technology is the term for any application of science, knowledge or technology towards improving the relationship between human technology involvement and the impact this has on the environment and natural resources. Green technology is a broad category, in that it can cover many different facets of technology and human development - energy usage, computer technology and agriculture are just a few of the many fields that can have the principles of green technology (such as sustainable development) applied to them.

Green science explores environmental issues, such as global warming and the greenhouse effect. You can also refer this term to technology that helps to preserve the nature by reducing the pollution of our environment. Some examples of  Green Technology  are new machines that use less electricity than the machines they replace. Then there are the 'energy saver light globes' that use florescent tubes built into a light bulb shape and use 50% less electricity and last for years.
