About The Book

The use various technologies and application of technology is central to many environmental problems in recent years, including global warming and environmental pollution. Though technology ahs often been a major cause of environmental problems in the past but while focusing on sustainable development, new technologies offer many solutions.<br> <BR> The current book is the contribution of number of Editors and scientists working for the development of current technological changes, their environmental implications, and possible strategies for the transition to a sustainable future. Book offer a baseline understanding of new technological developments, as well as important insights for moving beyond business-as-usual by developing more anticipatory approaches to environmental protection and more comprehensive strategies for promoting the transformation of technology.
