Abstract

Innovative thinking and digital technologies are essential for advancing sustainable development. It’s crucial to recognize that technological improvements can affect sustainability in both positive and negative ways. To improve sustainability results, it is crucial to have a thorough understanding of how people and organizations are utilizing these technologies. The objective of this article is to ascertain and evaluate the principal prospects and obstacles linked to the integration of technology in sustainable development. In addition, we have suggested several study topics and noted several research gaps that will require further investigation. Four main categories have been established for these research topics. The first three classifications center around the natural world, financial benefits, and society, the three pillars of sustainability. Study agendas that apply to all three of the environmentally friendly aspects are included in the fourth category, which is a general category. The knowledge gained from this research adds to the body of knowledge in several theoretical ways and has important applications for developers, decision-makers, and professionals. The major opportunities and difficulties associated with adopting technology for environmental development were noted and examined in this study. A bibliometric analysis is also performed to find and investigate research gaps. Future study issues and areas were recommended based on these research gaps. A surge in political and economic internationalization has been made possible in recent years by the creation of legislation, the removal of trade barriers, and technological advancements, particularly in the areas of transportation, energy, and telecommunication. Apart from the incentives associated with industrialization, advancements in technology across many economic domains have also played a role in exacerbating the environmental repercussions of economic expansion.

Keywords: Environmental Responsibility, Technological Sustainability, Global Sustainable Development, Product and Technology, Innovation Strategies, Tools and Methods

Impact Statement

By analyzing the evolution of technological and scientific connections through the caliber of ecological patents, this research closes a disconnect in the literature. Thus, meaningful evidence that is enhanced and complemented by conventional quantitative patent approaches is provided by the robustness and amplification of interconnections between the technical domains depicted through the matrices as well as the various areas of science and technology.

This is how using geographical organizations in the studies will reveal the methods that they used during the study time. These tactics are the outcome of initiatives that call for considerable adjustments to the interrelated and systemic technology used by various industries. In this instance, the adjustments must be viewed as a long-term, incremental investment that will help embrace improved practices supporting the advancement of clean technology, rather than just one that addresses a particular issue.
