Green technology can be defined as the use of science and technology to create products that are less harmful to the environment. It is environmentally friendly, the aim of it is to protect the environment. It can also refer to clean energy productions, which means using alternative technology and fuels that do not harm the environment.

Many countries are looking to support the growth of the economy and improve their citizens lives to live in a healthy environment without harming the planet, and this can be done by having a full understanding of this tech.
