Sup? I am back, and I was thinking that I am an idiot. Well, I talk about soo many environmental issues, but hold up! How in the world do we solve ‘em? Well considering it’s the Gen Z taking charge, here are some Gen Z options-
1) Solar Glass- What if every window in a skyscraper could generate energy? That's the promise of solar glass, an emerging technology that's getting a lot of buzz in design and sustainability circles. Just like it sounds, solar glass is suitably transparent window material but also captures the sun's energy and converts it into electricity. 2) Plant-Based Plastic!- Ok, this is straight-up gold for me! I have been talking about a substitute for plastic for ages, and here it is. We have to put an end to single-use plastics. In many places, straws are only given out upon request and single-use plastic bags have disappeared from grocery stores. Plant-based plastics that biodegrade are one palatable solution, as they could, in theory, replace many of the plastic products already in circulation. An Indonesian company called Avani Eco has been making bio-plastic out of cassava since 2014. Like fake meat and solar glass, this should become a booming sector in the years ahead. But beware: Not all bioplastics biodegrade, and the merit of some production techniques is debated. Part of becoming a responsible consumer in the next decade will be knowing the life cycle of the products we choose to buy, from creation to entropy. 3) Carbon Tiles- In India, there is a man who makes tiles out of carbon dioxide! He collects the pollution in the air somehow and converts it into tiles, one tile is equal to 1 day of fresh clean air! Let’s support this initiative! These are just a few of the inventions, but there are so many more that we have to explore, if you would like a part 2 where I talk about more amazing tech, comment so. Thanks for giving me time and reading this blog post. Be Safe and Have a Good One and I am out! Sorry if any mistakes have occurred or I sound rude. 😉 #GenZSolutions #NewTechForNewFuture #TechIsTheAnswer Sources- https://www.zdnet.com/article/10-technologies-most-likely-to-help-save-planet-earth/ , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0M3Fp4i9oI
