Abstract

Technological innovations in green infrastructure and smart agriculture are pivotal in building climate resilience, particularly in regions vulnerable to climate change. The integration of sustainable technologies and practices in both urban and rural contexts can significantly mitigate the effects of climate-related disasters, improve food security, and foster environmental sustainability. This paper explores the role of emerging technologies in enhancing climate resilience through the implementation of green infrastructure solutions and the adoption of smart agricultural practices. It examines key technological innovations such as IoT-based monitoring systems, renewable energy applications, and climate-smart agricultural techniques, highlighting their potential to transform agricultural practices, water management, and urban infrastructure in the face of climate change. The paper also discusses policy implications and the need for multi-sectoral collaboration to maximize the impact of these technologies.
