Technology and the Environment
Sustainable Development: is the technological development without harming the environment.
Working in Five Areas: (clean technologies - waste management policies - clean agriculture - tourism that doesn't harm the environment - cleaner and greener urban areas)
To Achieve Three Objectives: (keep natural resources - stop climate - reduce inequality in society)
