Technology advancement has proven to improve living standards in various aspects; however the sustainability of this improvement has came to doubt. Mankind has realized that technology advancement has depreciated habitability of their earth when the technological development does not consider its impact on the well-being of the earth. It is now without doubt that technologies should be "green". With rising energy costs and the threat of global warming and energy crisis, the society is now recognizing the benefits of using green technology to reduce carbon footprint, minimize waste and recycling. Sustainable development is the core of environmental or in green technologies. The field of green technology encompasses a continuously evolving group of methods, researches and materials, from techniques for generating energy to environmentally responsible disposal of waste.
The Conference aims to bring together researchers, engineers, academicians, industrial professionals, policy makers and regulators from diverse fields including building design, manufacturing, information technology, electronic and communication engineering, power engineering and education, to present, share and exchange research work and initiatives in areas relevant to green technology.
The objectives of the Conference are primarily to:
- Facilitate an international collaboration and information sharing in the areas relevant to green technology
- Raise an awareness of the world s environmental issues and challenges caused by the technological development
- Provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to showcase technology on new green initiatives
- Provide opportunities for delegates to interact actively, establishing business and research networking, and seeking regional partners for future collaboration
