Living Technology

Sustainability is an important part of our lives, not only because we have to take it under consideration to save our planet, but also because we want to feel good about our jobs and because we want to be effective members not only in our societies but also in the whole planet. Thinking about it, we couldn’t reach this far, in recycling and sustainability level, without technology. Now, with the technology use in the design and architecture fields, we were able to come up with green energy, multi-functional spaces, and the smart house expression.

30 years ago, green energy was just a dream, but with the technology revolution, it became possible to build green energy projects. While I was doing research about technology and its role in sustainability, a lot of green energy projects came up in my research, but I’m going to mention two projects, which grabbed my attention the most. The first project is called energy islands (figure 2). This project based on taking advantage of the ocean’s waves and the wind energy in the oceans. The idea of this project is simple; it’s about placing turbines under the water, which connected generators on the surface of the island to create clean, renewable energy. Next to placing turbines under the water, they place number of Windmills and solar cells on the surface of these islands, which also contributes providing clean power source.
