Recently we’ve been hearing terms like green technology, pollution, environmental impact and eco-sustainability a lot. We live in a time where the consequences of a worldwide industrialization are negatively affecting our ecosystem, therefore searching for solutions that could reduce the effects is becoming a necessity. Many companies are working in this direction,

looking for methodologies that respect the environment or at least damage it as little as possible.

The expression green technology means a series of processes aimed at eco-sustainability.

Researches will focus on trying to replace some of the current mechanisms of production with new processes, less polluting, that require less energy or the chance of using renewable energy sources.

Green technology doesn’t just include innovations that improve the quality of life on our planet, but also all production

phases.

Preserving our environment, or perhaps we should say saving it, revolutionizing our way of producing is not easy: we need skills, knowledge and research dedicated to this purpose. At the moment not all companies can manage independently this change, they need the support of technological partners to understand how they can contribute to this cause.

Depending on the area of application, there are many resources that allow an improvement of industrial processes and, luckily, the world as it is already offers a lot of examples of green technology. An interesting case, for example, is in agriculture: some firms that work in this way are replacing chemical pesticides with natural solutions. Poisons that used to pollute agricultural products, land and water, have been substituted with insect eggs that eat parasites which are released by drones. Until 10 years ago or so, finding an alternative to pesticides was hard, while now, thanks to a solar-powered drone and biochemistry studies, we can fly over hectares of plantations and release small eggs, preserving our products and our environment.

Our company too can offer an example of green technology. Working in IT and technology, PC Cube has the chance to think about, test and develop new solutions for its clients. With the help of sensors, we can optimize the process of fleet management: to firms that need to manage a huge amount of means, we offer a tool that allows to constantly control their use, the exploitation, the consumption and therefore understand and improve the environmental impact.

Working from a green technology perspective is something we all need to commit to, from the individual person to large corporations. Only if we give space and importance to research and development we’ll be able to find solutions that can really improve our planet.
