As the name implies, “green technology” is the one that has a “green” purpose. The “green” here does not mean the color. However, it means the long and short term influence an invention has on the environment. Green inventions are environmentally friendly inventions that often involve energy efficiency, recycling, safety and health concerns, renewable resources, and more.

One of the best known examples of green technology would be the solar cell. A solar cell directly changes the energy in light into electrical energy through the process of photovoltaics(光伏发电). Producing electricity from solar energy means less consumption of fossil fuels, reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions(排放). Another simple invention that can be considered green is the reusable water bottle. Drinking lots of water is healthy. Reducing plastic waste is great for the environment. Therefore, popular reusable water bottles are health-promoting, eco-friendly, and green.

The world has a fixed amount of natural resources, some of which are already used up or ruined. For example, household batteries and electronics often contain dangerous chemicals that can pollute the groundwater a fter disposal, polluting our soil and water with chemicals that cannot be removed from the drinking water supply and the food crops grown on polluted soil. The risks to human health are great.

Inventors should know that green inventions and clean technologies are good business. These are fast growing markets with growing  profits. Consumers should know that buying green inventions can reduce their energy bill and that green inventions are often safer and healthier products.
