Description

Abstract:

Technology has been helpful in advancing sustainable development in a number of areas, including transportation, energy, and agriculture. Technology may play a major role in sustainable development by boosting resource efficiency, cutting waste, and enhancing social and environmental results. The use of science and technology to create sustainable buildings is an issue that is increasingly being debated globally. The necessity of science coming up with a solution has increased due to the resources gradually running out. At this point, the role of science and technology in fostering sustainable development to combat the problems brought on by human-caused climate change is absolutely essential. A key component of sustainable development is technology. It is impossible to dispute technology's role in assisting in meeting the needs of sustainable development, whether they be social, economic, or environmental. Governments and other entities exhibit significant hesitancy in implementing the political and social adjustments required to curb the expansion of production and consumption. This is when reliance on technology and science becomes relevant. Today, the majority of nations use science and technology to find solutions to their environmental issues and to build a sustainable future.
