There are probably hundreds of answers for your question. In my opinion, first thing that comes to mind is energy monitoring using smart sensor. This will help reduce carbon foot print. Agriculture: monitoring soil moisture and other environmental conditions can help achieve JIT in agriculture and inturn reduce carbon foot print.

Various forms of advanced technologies will help protect natural resources in many ways inter alia monitoring, explorations and decision support systems.

I think that information technology can make the control of the evolution of nature and of the natural phenomena that govern in an immediate way almost in real time and therefore help the man who is interdependent with it to solve the problems that affect it negatively.

This can be achieved by monitoring the phenomena by creating more and more complete databases, using sensors capable of continuously reporting atmospheric and seismological data that are correlated.

Pollution arising from human activities can be monitored and minimized.

The various sectors identified were divided and analyzed first through the "TOP-DOWN" method and then dealt separately to minimize the impact or even solve any problems.

Dear Nagdev Amruthnath, Vincent Raphael Nyirenda, Roberto Ardovini, Thank you very much for your answer and participation in the discussion. You described the problem very well. I fully agree with your opinion on this topic. Thank you very much for an inspiring, interesting and substantive answer. I also believe that various new technologies, including technologies transformed to the current fourth industrial revolution known as Industry 4.0, should be used to improve and increase the scale of environmental protection, protection of natural ecosystems and biodiversity.

Thank you very much and best regards, Have a nice day,

I would like to add a few more words to the above discussion. In view of the above, in my opinion, the Industry 4.0 technologies should be used to improve and increase the scale of environmental protection, protection of natural ecosystems and biodiversity. The development of information processing technology in the era of the current technological revolution referred to as Industry 4.0 is determined by the development and growth of applications of ICT information technologies, Internet technologies and advanced data processing. The currently taking place technological revolution referred to as Industry 4.0 is motivated by the development of the following factors: analytical and database technologies Big Data Analytics, Data Science, cloud computing, machine learning, personal and industrial Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, Business Intelligence, autonomous robots, horizontal and vertical data system integration, multi-criteria simulation models, additive manufacturing, Blockchain, cybersecurity instruments, Virtual and Augmented Reality, and other advanced data mining technologies.

Therefore, the following question arises, to which one may already try to answer: Which Industry 4.0 technologies can most significantly improve and improve the instruments and systems used for environmental protection, protection of natural ecosystems and biodiversity?

Dear Colleagues and Friends from RG, Please reply

What do you think about it?

What is your opinion on this topic?

Thank you very much and best regards,

I am in total agreement with Nagdev Amruthnath

Industrial 4.0 works in conjunction with ecosystem engineering which looks into reduction environmental harmful gases generated by industries and mechanical system and substitute with ecofriendly ones and input a smart and a close system to energy source. With this, industrial 4.0 has protected the natural environment.
