Green Investment

As an important part of the development of green economy, the green investment evaluation system provides a method to identify the performance of the investment environment and also guides the design of green investment plans. This article is aimed at analyzing the application of cloud computing and information fusion technology in the green investment evaluation system, using empirical analysis, qualitative and quantitative analysis, data integration, and distributed computing algorithms to carry out research. Data acquisition is mainly through cloud platform information fusion, to evaluate the investment subject, investment object, and investment vehicle of green investment. Qualitative and quantitative analysis is mainly through the definition of prerequisites by stipulating certain aspects of green, and the analysis of the country’s data changes in a certain time zone. Focus on the qualitative analysis and research on the green benefit attributes of a certain thing. In addition, by analyzing the influencing factors of the investment development status of green industries in different countries, such as green products, green projects, and green funds, it proves that the application of cloud computing and information fusion technology has a huge effect on the green investment evaluation system. Experimental data shows that in the past five years, investment in fixed assets in my country’s major industries accounted for the proportion of fixed asset investment in the whole society, and investment in environmental protection and energy supply industries has continued to rise. This upward trend is manifested in the fact that the amount of energy investment is increasing year by year. The development trend is the strongest during the development period and the entry period, and its data grows the most rapidly, while investment in the transportation industry has always been listed in the tables. For the first place in the industry, the highest was 20.84%.

The increasing volume and complexity of waste associated with the modern economy as due to the ranging population, is posing a serious risk to ecosystems and human health. Every year, an estimated 11.2 billion tonnes of solid waste is collected worldwide and decay of the organic proportion of solid waste is contributing about 5 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions (UNEP). Poor waste management - ranging from non-existing collection systems to ineffective disposal causes air pollution, water and soil contamination. Open and unsanitary landfills contribute to contamination of drinking water and can cause infection and transmit diseases. The dispersal of debris pollutes ecosystems and dangerous substances from waste or garbage puts a strain on the health of urban dwellers and the environment. India, being second most populated country of the world that too with the lesser land area comparatively, faces major environmental challenges associated with waste generation and inadequate waste collection, transport, treatment and disposal. Population explosion, coupled with improved life style of people, results in increased generation of solid wastes in urban as well as rural areas of the country. The challenges and barriers are significant, but so are the opportunities. A priority is to move from reliance on waste dumps that offer no environmental protection, to waste management systems that retain useful resources within the economy [2]. Waste segregation at source and use of specialized waste processing facilities to separate recyclable materials has a key role. Disposal of residual waste after extraction of material resources needs engineered landfill sites and/or investment in waste-to-energy facilities. This study focusses on the minimization of the waste and gives the brief about the various initiations for proper waste management system. Hence moving towards the alternatives is the way to deal with these basic problems. This paper outlines various advances in the area of waste management. It focuses on current practices related to waste management initiatives taken by India. The purpose of this article put a light on various initiatives in the country and locates the scope for improvement in the management of waste which will also clean up the unemployment.
