Development of eco-technologies It is impossible to
imaginethepresent without modern technologies and developed infrastructure. Technical
progress contributed to the development of society, allowing to influence natural processes
and accumulate vital resources. The combined efforts of people and the de-standardization of
applied methods gave rapid growth to precisely those industries that were in demand.
Scientific activity has brought the world view to a new level of
perception and awareness, freeing space from archaisms for decisive actions, which
isreflected in the specifics of setting goals and reassessing priorities.
Thus, technological evolution has solved global problems regarding the provision of humanity
and taken care of its primary needs.
Impact on the environment
It is quite clear that the point of intersection of technology and
human needs is nature. She instantly reacts to irresponsible behavior. Concentrating all
efforts on obtaining resources often leads to significant changes in the ecosystem. The
consequences of such activities have enough examples of terrible environmental disasters that
do not pass without a trace, forming negative indicators of the environmental situation in
the world.
Environmental pollution has become the main driver for starting new
industries and developing eco-technology aimed at preserving nature and human health.
Equally important is the actualization and development of mechanisms for overcoming existing
problems, giving rise to the hope that a polluted environment will not be the norm in our
time.
Recognizing the activities of society as the main influencing
factoron natural processes is a key moment in building the concept of an ecologically safe
future, allowing to focus on the preservation of the natural environment as the primary task.
This information confirms that, first of all, the impact on human health has become the main
driver in this direction, providing a social and moral basis for overcoming the existing
consequences.
For centuries, the consequences of the technological
revolution have held hostage the planet's population, namely polluted air and water. It is
possible to say without exaggeration that today there is no person whose life would not be
affected by such factors, because they occupy the first places in their list.
Developed countries overcome the problems of lack of drinking water
with complex solutions for extraction, purification, disinfection and use a modern water
supply network. Less successful countries benefit from the benefits inherited from the
beginning of the industrial age, namely outdated technologies and depleted water supply
networks. Very poor countries may not have such resources.
Water is the source of life and an indicator of its quality
But if we objectively assess the state of affairs, can we say with confidence that the existing
standards are really criteria for quality water
