RE: Technology is Poised to Make Moot Many of the Most Contentious Social Issues of our Time

in #technology6 years ago (edited)

Technology had its adverse effect on the environment till 20th century but now we are preferring ecofriendly technology, so that our mother earth doesn't get that much effected.
Climate change is currently threatening the livelihoods of millions of people who are already poor and vulnerable, by altering the natural and physical assets they rely on, particularly for agricultural production. In order to adapt to climate change, they will need access to new and improved technologies, skills and knowledge. The most appropriate technologies can enable people to improve their livelihoods even when there is uncertainty about the future climate. Many such technologies are already in use at the local level. For instance, technologies that reduce vulnerability to climate change, such as early warning systems or improved water management. But these require much wider dissemination if they are to bring benefits to the millions of people affected by climate change.
Companies with strong accountability systems, strategic board oversight, clear human rights, transparent environmental management policies, and active & effective stakeholder engagement stand a good chance of achieving sustainability. In fact, the results are bound to be favorable for these companies, across various parameters including renewable energy usage, reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, and application of sustainability practices for product and service delivery.
I hope our technology is going more green day by day and in coming decades we will have technology that doesn't effect out Mother Earth
