From DDT to emerging eco-technologies; The long journey to green-evolution and green-economy
T
he industrial revolution that started in the mid 18th century was followed by the green revolution which began in the mid
20
th
century. DDT symbolizes more than anything the beginning of the green revolution, but also the disillusionment
from a dream of a never-ending solution to all human problems. The awakening from the DDT dream as the ultimate solution
came in less than 20 years since its discovery as a pesticide. This is when its downsides started to be understood. The European
green movements and current public concerns about ecological issues is the outcome of that. However, upto now most of the
emerging green economy industries struggle to survive and taking the lead looks like a distant dream. This presentation will
have the discussion on the hardship, time and the necessary measures we have to take in order to create a flourishing green
economy industry. For this presentation the Pest-control industry will be used as a case study to processes occurring in many
other emerging green economy industries, including biopolymers.
