Abstract

Integrating green technology into corporate management is key to achieving social and environmental sustainability goals amidst growing global challenges. Green technologies, such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, and waste management, help companies reduce their ecological footprint while increasing operational efficiency. However, implementing green technology requires a well-thought-out strategy, organizational culture change, and proper resource management. In order to achieve sustainability, companies must ensure that every element of the organization supports green initiatives and implements policies that encourage the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies. In addition, companies also need to harness the potential of innovation to create sustainable value and focus on operational efficiency. To that end, companies must commit to implementing a long-term strategy that integrates sustainability into every line of their business, with continuous evaluation of the achievement of goals. Therefore, green technology is not only a solution to protect the environment, but also to create a more sustainable future for companies and society as a whole.
