The problem of attention management in innovation for sustainability

Article Abstract:

The use of technology in the context of sustainable development is influenced by the proper dissemination of scientific information. The issue lies not in the amount of pertinent information but its availability to the right person at the right time. This can be addressed through a collective learning method that remains to be developed. On the other hand, sustainable development is not just brought about by a single technology. Instead, a combination of technologies tested by time is needed to achieve a desired environmentally friendly technology.
