  Overview of Green Technology in Climate Adaptation Greenhouse technology Green technology, also known as clean or sustainable technology, encompasses innovations and practices that minimize environmental impacts, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and enhance resilience to climate change. As the frequency and intensity of climate-related disasters increase, green technology is emerging as a cornerstone of climate adaptation strategies. This section provides an overview of the concept, its applications across various sectors, and its role in supporting climate resilience. Defining Green Technology Green technology refers to developing and applying products, services, and systems that use resources efficiently and reduce negative environmental impacts. It spans various fields, including renewable energy, water management, agriculture, urban planning, and disaster risk reduction (United Nations Environment Programme [UNEP], 2022). Unlike traditional technologies that often deplet...

  Sustainable Water Management Sustainable water resource management As climate change intensifies, the sustainable management of water resources has become critical to ensuring water security and mitigating the impacts of scarcity and variability. Sustainable water management encompasses strategies that balance the demands of agriculture, industry, and domestic use with the preservation of ecosystems and natural hydrological cycles. This section explores integrated water resource management, nature-based solutions, innovative technologies, and policy frameworks for equitable and efficient water use. Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) is a comprehensive approach that considers the interconnectedness of water, land, and ecosystems to promote sustainable and equitable water use . IWRM emphasizes the need for coordination among stakeholders, including governments, businesses, and communities, to balance competing demand s. Key Princ...
