What are Examples of Cleaner Technologies in Practice?
Several sectors have successfully implemented cleaner technologies. For example, the chemical industry employs green synthesis methods to produce pharmaceuticals and other chemicals with reduced environmental impact. In agriculture, integrated pest management (IPM) minimizes the use of toxic pesticides by combining biological, cultural, and mechanical control methods. Additionally, renewable energy technologies, such as solar and wind power, reduce reliance on fossil fuels and the associated toxic emissions.
