2) The Green Revolution was a series of technological advancements in agriculture that occurred in the mid-20th century. It was aimed at increasing agricultural productivity to feed the growing population, particularly in developing countries. One of the significant technological improvements attributed to the Green Revolution was the development of high-yielding crop varieties. These crops were designed to be more resistant to pests and diseases and could produce higher yields per hectare than traditional varieties.
This technological agricultural improvement was a significant success, as it increased crop yields and helped alleviate hunger in many parts of the world. However, it also had some negative effects, such as increased reliance on fertilizers and pesticides, and reduced crop diversity.
The “Green Movement” emerged in response to the negative environmental impacts of industrialization and agricultural practices. Its focus is on reducing pollution, preserving natural resources, and promoting sustainable development. This movement encourages the use of renewable resources and technologies that are environmentally friendly. (ChatGPT (OpenAI, 2021)) The Green Revolution and the Green Movement are two different approaches to agriculture. While the Green Revolution emphasized the use of technology to increase agricultural productivity, the Green Movement emphasizes the need to use sustainable, environmentally friendly technologies that reduce negative environmental impacts.
