ABSTRACT
Green Technology is environmental healing technology that reduces environmental damages created by the products and technologies for peoples’ conveniences. It also known as sustainable technology, takes into account the long- and short-term impact something has on the environment. Eco-friendly technologies are recycled, recyclable and/or biodegradable content, plant-based materials, reduction of polluting substances, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy, energy-efficiency, multi-functionality and low-impact manufacturing. Agricultural sustainability in this context should seek to maximize food production within constraints of profitability. There is an ever-increasing demand for food and adequate nutrition and nanotechnology will provide solutions through precision farming using nanosensors, nano-pesticides, and inexpensive decentralized water purification. A more advanced nanotechnology solution will be plant gene therapy; creating pest resistant, high yield crops that require less water etc. which also supports a sustainable environment.
