Lars Winkelbauer - Sustainability and Technology in the Contemporary Times

1. Lars Winkelbauer - Sustainability and Technology in the Contemporary Times

2. In the last few decades, the human population has seen much growth and technology in contemporary Times. In terms of industrialization, communication, and globalization. At the forefront of it all was the development of technology. A drawback of such rapid change was the deterioration of our environment. The Industrial Revolution significantly added to the amount of pollution. Pollution soon became a factor for people to be concerned about because it had many impacts.

3. The emission of greenhouse gases impacts the overall Global climate. It impacts the level of Oceans and seas. It endangers a variety of biological diversity. It contributes to an increase in the spread of diseases. This results in many more health conditions and so on. Learn more about it in the blog Lars Winkelbauer Carbon Offsetting — The Fight Against Air Cargo Emissions.

5. The pandemic allowed us to shift our focus. People became aware of not only living a lifestyle of comfort but also started looking for a sustainable and comfortable way of life. Thus, the industry evolved to cater to this demand for sustainability. Technology still remains at the forefront of guiding this change. Some of the factors that are being worked upon include: Consideration for waste reduction: Technology is being developed in a way such that its usage as well as its production produce as less of waste as possible.

6. Keeping things biodegradable: A lot of research and study is actively being carried out to look for alternative resources. These can be used to manufacture a number of products without causing long-term problems. Degradable materials can cause a significant reduction in pollution. Conservation of resources: Resources can be renewable or nonrenewable. It is important that these nonrenewable resources be conserved. The renewable resources, on the other hand, can be put to use in a way such that they are environmentally friendly. Technology today can make use of natural resources such as solar power, geothermal energy, and much more.

7. Reduction of carbon footprint: the emission of greenhouse gases, specifically carbon dioxide, has caused much harm. Active efforts are being made by all industries to reduce the amount of carbon footprint that is generated in a process. Energy Efficiency: Energy is used up in almost all activities that are carried out. Efforts are now being put into making technology more energy efficient.

8. Of the various improvements in the field of technology, things like blockchain, artificial intelligence, digital documentation and machine learning are becoming prominent. These developments are sought after because they offer solutions to the factors mentioned above. These developments allow benefits like: • Cutting down on waste reduction • Having an energy-efficient approach • Causing a reduction in the number of resources involved • Reducing a window of error

9. An environmentally friendly approach • Reducing the overall generation of carbon footprint • Improving customer experience • Adding to the integrity of data • Cutting down on time involved in carrying out the processes. • Simplifying a complex approach • Adding to transparency and trust • Help conserve space and much more.
