green transformation Flashcards
What is Green Transformation?
Green transformation refers to efforts aimed at achieving an environmentally friendly and sustainable future, addressing climate change, resource depletion, and environmental challenges.
What is the aim of green transformation?
The aim is to reduce the environmental impact of various industries and promote a lifestyle that is less harmful to ecosystems.
What are the key objectives of green transformation?
The key objectives include enhancing energy efficiency, reducing carbon emissions, promoting sustainable use of resources, minimizing environmental pollution, and increasing societal participation.
What sectors can green transformation measures be applied to?
Measures can be applied across energy production, transportation, agriculture, waste management, and urban planning.
What are some key elements of green transformation?
Key elements include transitioning to renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, enhancing waste management, and promoting eco-friendly practices and products.
What is Solar Energy?
Solar energy is a renewable energy source from the sun, used for electricity, heating, water heating, and lighting. It reduces dependence on hydrocarbons and fossil fuels.
What is Wastewater Treatment in the context of green transformation?
Wastewater treatment uses processes like biological treatment, nanotechnology, and membrane filtration to make water drinkable or reduce pollutants in discharged water.
What are Vertical Gardens and Farms?
Vertical gardens in buildings help save energy, improve air quality, reduce noise pollution, and help with cooling by isolating high temperatures caused by climate change.
What is Waste-to-Energy technology?
Waste-to-energy technology generates energy from waste using treatment solutions that produce energy in the form of steam, hot water, or electricity.
What are Eco-Vehicles?
Eco-vehicles are ecological vehicles that do not emit pollutants into the atmosphere and help reduce the presence of harmful gases like carbon dioxide and unburned hydrocarbons.
What is Recycling and Waste Management?
Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new products, which helps conserve natural resources, reduce landfill waste, and decrease greenhouse gas emissions.
