Green Technology
Green technology, also known as environmental technology or clean technology, refers to the development and application of products, equipment, and systems that are used to conserve the natural environment and resources, as well as to minimize and reduce the negative impact of human activity on the planet. Green technology aims to promote sustainability, energy efficiency, and the responsible use of resources.
Key Concepts
- Renewable Energy: Green technology focuses on harnessing energy from renewable sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power. These sources are sustainable and have minimal impact on the environment.
- Energy Efficiency: Green technologies aim to minimize energy consumption and reduce waste by developing energy-efficient appliances, buildings, and transportation systems.
- Waste Management: Green technology includes methods for recycling, composting, and converting waste into energy to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills.
- Water Conservation: Technologies that help in conserving and purifying water, as well as reducing water wastage, are an essential part of green technology.
- Pollution Control: Green technology involves developing systems and equipment to control and reduce air, water, and soil pollution, as well as addressing issues related to climate change.

LIFE SCIENCE
From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes
Create representations to explain the unique and diverse life cycles of organisms other than humans (e.g., flowering plants, frogs, butterflies), including commonalities such as birth, growth, reproduction, and death.
Unity and Diversity
Construct an argument from evidence to explain the likelihood of an organism’s ability to survive when compared to the resources in a certain habitat (e.g., freshwater organisms survive well, less well, or not at all in saltwater; desert organisms survive well, less well, or not at all in woodlands).
Create models that illustrate how organisms and their habitats make up a system in which the parts depend on each other.
