GREEN CHEMISTRY IS ABOUT... Waste Materials Hazard Risk Energy Cost Reducing
MAJOR USES OF GREEN CHEMISTRY Global Change -climate change Resource Depletion -increasingly viable technological for Renewable resources Food Supply -Agricultural methods & wastes Toxics in the Environment -design for reduced hazards
APPLICATION OF GREEN NANOTECHNOLOGY Health Energy Information and communication Heavy Industry Consumer goods
GREEN BUILDINGS Reasons for the Need of Green Buildings: Increase in the number of buildings leading to greater consumption of Power. High rise buildings and construction as a whole, adversely affecting the environment. Corporate houses now need to put a check on the environmental pollution and degradation as a part of their CSR activities.
GREEN IT Reasons for the Need of Green IT: Increasing Energy Efficiencies to reduce operational costs Compliance with the regulatory bodies and reducing the carbon footprints Increasing the efficiency of computing resources so as to reduce the environmental impact of IT utilization
GREEN ENERGY Reasons for the Need of Green Energy: Natural Resources used in the energy generation process on the decline Increasing pollution caused by the non renewable sources
WHAT CAN WE DO? Responsibility for the environment Rethink the way we live, use energy, natural resources Issues: 1.Reducing Exhaustion 2.Recycle Waste 3.Renewing Energy 3.Renewing Energy
GENERATION “WE” Together we can make a difference for a better world
