Advanced Technology for Smart Environment and Water Treatment

Dear Colleagues,

New technologies are a necessity in the daily life of our generation. Today, it is difficult to live without a phone, a computer or even WIFI. However, the links between the environment and technology are not very positive. Green technology has developed in this context. The latter aims to contribute to the improvement of the quality of the environment. It seeks to create technologies that aim to monitor, reduce and control the negative impact of this sector on the environment. Hence, the implementation of solar panels and purification stations. The "low-tech" innovations also allow us to improve our environmental impact; for example, the insulation of a house to avoid spending a lot of energy. In this conception, the needs of the present and future generations are not limited by the stock of natural resources, but by the state of the techniques to take advantage of them. It is therefore not a question of pointing out the limits of the planet's capacity to meet needs, as suggested by the Meadows report, but rather of looking at the capacity of people and techniques.
