SE 07 EP 05: Why is clean technology important?

from Sustainably Influenced

Welcome back to Season 7 of Sustainably Influenced. This series we are discussing the intersection of technology and sustainability. In today's episode we are talking about clean technology, also known as "green technology" or "clean tech," which refers to a broad range of products, services, and processes that minimise negative environmental impacts while promoting sustainability. Clean technology encompasses a wide range of areas, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, green transportation, sustainable agriculture, waste management and recycling, and water conservation, among others. The importance of clean technology cannot be overstated, as it plays a crucial role in addressing some of the world's most pressing environmental challenges, including climate change, deforestation, water scarcity, and air pollution.The Tyre Collective, which is a clean-tech company founded in 2020 by Hanson, Hugo and Siobhan with a vision to reduce their impact on the environment.What began as a master’s project at Imperial College London and the Royal College of Art, now brings people across disciplines and industries together to tackle the complex problem of tyre wear.

Epics of Rome Dr Rhiannon Evans This subject explores Ancient Roman epic poetry, the literary genre which deals with grand mythical narratives involving heroes, gods, war, and love affairs. Epic was the most prestigious literary form in the ancient world. Roman poets adapted and developed Greek epic, particularly influenced by the Homeric Iliad and Odyssey. Roman epics similarly deal with divine and heroic material, but Roman poets also weave contemporary and topical themes into the mythical subject matter. The primary text for this subject is Ovid's Metamorphoses, which tells many comic tales of the gods in love and encounters between heroes and monsters through a series of transformations. Epics which influenced Ovid will also be studied, such as the Greek epics of Homer, the early Roman epics of Naevius and Ennius, and Virgil's Aeneid, which was the most significant influence on Ovid. We shall also consider Ovid as a major influence upon Western artists and writers, from Shakespeare to David Malouf.
