GREEN TECHNOLOGY

The New Wave

of

Today’s Society

By: Karen Clement

BOTH ARE WRONG!

We alway

s hav

e seemed to

run out o

f what

we

needed

Pessimist

have said that we are

entering an “Era of

Scarcity”

Optimist have said

that we now live in an

“Era of Abundance”

“ Renewable energy & “alternative uses” are at the heart of Green Technology.

“Green technology” is in the early stage of development; however it is becoming the new wave of society. It encompasses an evolving group of methods and techniques;

Inserts

Manufacturing of Green Designs

Incorporating Renewable Energy

or Alternatives

“Greening” Technology

Such as

The Goal: To be Sustainable

for everyone everyday

The Expectation: To change the daily habitual

habits of society.

GREEN DESIGNSProducts that avoid using toxic materials

Will not harm the humans or ecological system

• Reusable diaper cover (the gPants)

• Disposable (inserts)

• 100% biodegradable.

• Environmentally friendly

• Cheaper to manufacturer

• Life span-30+ yrs.

• Electrically efficient • Biodegradable

recyclable and/or reusable parts

• Made w/ eco-friendly materials

EDIAPERS COMES IN DIFFERENT

COLORS & SIZES

CAN BE FLUSHED-TOSSED-COMPOSTED

FEATURES LOWER POWER CONSUMPTION

DESIGNED FOR DISASSEMBLY SO

THAT IT CAN EASILY BE BROKEN DOWN

AND RECYCLED

LED FROG LIGHTBULBSTIES IN WITH TRADITIONAL LIGHTBULB

REQUIRES NO HARMFUL

CHEMICAL TO PRODUCE

The invention, design, and

execution of such products are vital to GREEN TECHNOLOGY

Reducing waste by changing patterns of

production

ECO-FRIENDLY

PROPERLY DISPOSING OF

BIO-HAZARDOUS WASTE

“GREENING” OF

TECHNOLOGY

CRADLE TO CRADLE

CONCEPT

Solar energy, wind power and

water are all traditional sources of alternative

energy that are making progress.

The challenge is developing the capabilities to

capture and store this energy so that it

can be used when needed

ENERGYA source that powers the world!

IN WITH THE NEWOUT WITH THE OLD Alternative energy

companies are working with and are being

supported by the oil companies in the development of

alternative energy resources.

Fossil fuels are non-renewable & will be depleted,

but are valuable service

This part of technology is renewable or alternative energy sources

The most innovative part of green technology is

green nanotechnology.

Wow,

A self c

leaning

mirror??

Nanotechnology is a branch of

technology devoted to

manufacturing and application of devices on an

atomic scale

Yes, “Green technology” is the new wave of today’s society.

Green technology researches new ways to use our natural resources without depleting them, and without making it harder for future

generations to survive!
