Digital Technologies and the Green Economy: Prospects and Challenges
Last modified: 2024-04-03
Abstract
The transition to the post-industrial phase of world development is accompanied by the aggravation of global problems that can be solved within the framework of digital technologies and the green economy. The main principles of such an economy respond to modern ideas about balanced development and in many ways are similar to the rational environmental concept. Digital technologies and the green economy are based on the idea of improving the quality of life of the population and economic growth while reducing the burden on the environment. The digitalization and green economy indicators developed so far reflect the difficulty of comprehensively assessing the economic, environmental, and social consequences of development. Due to the lack of a generally accepted approach to such assessment, the development of the world and national economies is often compared to the dynamics of their energy capacity or resource capacity, taking into account the "life cycle" of products, which makes it possible to more objectively distribute the responsibility of countries for environmental damage.
