Arun Singh Tomar

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: As society and the economy continue to grow and develop, technology and science are becoming increasingly important to the success of society and the economy in order to sustain the current state of society and the economy in the future. It is important to note that there are other core elements and methods of implementation that are important to the success of a Green Economy in addition to research, development, deployment, and widespread diffusion of technologies that are environmentally sound. It is also important to note that there are a number of other factors that contribute to the success of the Green Economy, such as innovation, business opportunities, trade of environmental goods and services, finance and investments, and institutional capacity. To eradicate poverty and reorient current unsustainable development trajectories in order to alleviate poverty by 2030, the development and dissemination of affordable technological solutions will be essential over the next fifteen years to eradicate poverty and reorient current unsustainable development trajectories. A number of the gaps that hinder the facilitation and transfer of these technologies can, however, be addressed through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which offer a unique opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity.
