Abstract: Climate change has emerged as one of the most serious economic, social and environmental challenges of the twenty-first century. Rising global temperatures, extreme weather events, biodiversity loss, water scarcity and increasing environmental degradation threaten economic growth and human well-being. In this context, green technology, innovation and digital solutions have become important instruments for achieving climate action and sustainable development. Green technology helps reduce environmental damage while improving resource efficiency and promoting the use of renewable energy. Innovation creates new products, production methods and business models that can reduce carbon emissions and support sustainable economic growth. Digital technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things, big data, satellite technology and smart systems provide new opportunities for monitoring climate change, improving resource allocation and developing climate-resilient economies. This paper examines the meaning and significance of green technology, innovation and digital solutions and explores their economic pathways towards sustainable development. It also highlights the role of investment, employment, sustainable production, green finance and inclusive growth in achieving climate goals.
