How should the financing of the development of environment-friendly technologies be developed?

In my opinion, in the future the most important proecological technologies that should be improved and implemented are renewable energy technologies based on solar energy. Solar power plants should be developed. Commercial banks should provide loans for these purposes. However, in order for commercial financing programs to develop, the role of the State as potentially the main subject of financing large pro-ecological energy projects is also important. Similarly with nuclear energy, which is so very expensive to build, that without financial support from state finances, it would often not be possible to build a nuclear power plant.

In view of the above, I would like to ask you: How should the financing of the development of environment-friendly technologies be developed?

Please, answer, comments. I invite you to the discussion.

Should international cooperation be developed to solve problems related to the global warming?

In order to solve the problems related to the global warming of the Earth's climate, international cooperation should develop to develop a common global strategy of pro-ecological activities and sustainable development of the new green economy.

In December 2018, the United Nations climate summit in Katowice took place in Katowice. COP (Conference of the Parties) on climate policy on Earth. UN climate summits, i.e. COP (Conference of the Parties) are global conferences during which climate policy actions are negotiated. Poland twice hosted them - in 2008 in Poznań and in 2013 in Warsaw. In December 2018, the climate summit is held for the first time now in Katowice in Poland.

During this summit, conferences are held, discussions are held on the need to develop a sustainable development policy and the need for development of ecological, renewable energy sources in order to generate a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in the future and ultimately reduce the average annual temperature rise on the Earth's surface. From the discussions it follows that it is necessary to develop eco-innovations, new pro-ecological energy sources, development of electromobility of transport means. It is necessary to develop and implement on a large scale renewable energy sources. In addition, it is important to increase the scale of afforestation, as forests and the flora contained in them absorb a large proportion of greenhouse gas emissions.

As part of this year's UN Climate Summit, the 24th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP24), 14th Meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP 14) and the Conference of the Paris Agreement signatories (CMA 1) are held. About 20,000 people from 190 countries participate in the event, including politicians, representatives of non-governmental organizations, and scientific and business spheres.

Perhaps during this UN climate summit important and specific agreements, declarations and signed agreements on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions will be taken. The present lectures show that in recent years the warming process of the Earth's climate has accelerated significantly and therefore, in the black scenario of future climate changes, the temperature on the Earth's surface can rise by 4 ° C to the end of the 21st century. If this happened, then the scale of climate-related cataclysms that are dangerous to humans, including droughts, floods, fires and weather anomalies in many places around the world, will increase many times. The problem is very serious globally and therefore a lot depends on whether international cooperation will develop in order to limit these problems and their negative effects.

In view of the above, I would like to ask you: Should you think that international cooperation should increase to reduce greenhouse gas emissions on Earth? In addition, another key question arises: how much of this international cooperation is possible, to what extent will real and effective measures be undertaken on the basis of the discussions and declarations undertaken to reduce greenhouse gases?

In general, the answer to this question has to be a Yes! Whatever environmentally-friendly technology can be promoted or upscaled from on country to another should be supported. This can only be beneficial for our planet, the countries involved, environment, ecosystems, sustainability etc. In fact this is ongoing in many ways, but the process is most likely dominated by bilateral project approaches and as part of economic development likewise agendas of multinational companies. The question could be extend to "how" this should be done to motivate all involved and to conduct this process in a fair manner. In fact there may be many barriers that have to be considered, addressed or overcome such as relevant framework conditions (legal background, culture and common habits, status of development, needs, market demand, technical standards) etc. I would like to add that this process should be thought of or designed more in the manner of 'sharing on same level' instead of knowledge exchange formulated as 'development aid' that may be perceived as 'Top down' approach. Developed countries may also have to consider that they can learn or 'relearn' many environmental friendly technologies from less developed countries, e.g good practises that ones existed but are nowadays 'sacrificed' due to economical development. Establishing supermarkets for example may look modern on the first glance but force many people to travel longer transport distances every day whereas they may get more dependet on packed goods instead of buying daily goods fresh (and unpacked) close to their houses etc. But initiatives to support the process of knowledge exchange, to raise environmental awareness, to build capacities, institutions and to support expert development (e,g, research and student programs for developing countries) should be strengthened and more integrated into the development agendas of developed countries. The latter is already laid down in principle by the Sustainable Developement Goal 17 of the UN, likewise the principle of 'leave no one behind'.

Yes, especially in the area of knowledge management to help them stand on their feet. Siribuppa

In the developing countries, the technical and social infrastructures needed to develop environment-friendly methods for energy production from renewable sources is very low, and the growth of science is not enough to develop these structures lonely. I think we should first help improve social indices such as health and education and political development in these countries.

Dear Friends and Colleagues of RG

In my opinion, renewable energy sources should be developed on the basis of various pro-ecological technologies and ecological innovations. Which technological solutions will be developed in particular countries depends on many factors, ie determinants according to which individual countries differ in terms of production potential, development of specific industries, equipment in particular production factors and financial possibilities. Rich countries characterized by higher incomes should support the development of pro-ecological technologies in poorer countries characterized by lower incomes. International cooperation in this area should be resolved.

Do you agree with me on the above matter?

Although it is often suggested that charity begins at home, the wealthy nations should help the poorer nations with careful planning, education, and cooperation in the area of technological solutions that can cater to pro-ecological needs. As Charles Dickens states , " No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another” .

technology transfer is crucial for sustainable development, especially to enable developing countries to access latest technologies.
