Reducing emissions through energy efficiency With respect to its own multibillion - dollar portfolio of drilling operations, refineries and pipelines, Exxon Mobil said it «addresses the risk of climate change
in several
concrete and meaningful
ways,» including through energy efficiency measures, deployment of less carbon - intensive technologies at its facilities and even the development of
products that help consumers use energy more efficiently.
Yes, nanotechnology is becoming ubiquitous
in our daily lives and has found its
way into many commercial
products, for example, strong, lightweight materials for better fuel economy; targeted drug delivery for safer and more effective cancer treatments; clean, accessible drinking water around the world; superfast computers with vast amounts of storage; self - cleaning surfaces; wearable health monitors; more efficient solar panels; safer food through packaging and monitoring; regrowth of skin, bone, and nerve cells for better medical outcomes; smart windows that lighten or darken to conserve energy; and nanotechnology - enabled
concrete that dries more quickly and has sensors to detect stress or corrosion at the nanoscale
in roads, bridges, and buildings.
