Abstract:Green design refers to a design principle and method that comprehensively considers energy and resource conservation, emission reduction, and environmental impact during the product manufacturing and operation process in the product design stage. It strives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout the entire product lifecycle. In the era of information networks, green design is supported by big data, AI network collaborative design, network detection and monitoring, etc. It involves selecting energy-saving processes, green and low-carbon materials, and optimizing product geometry design and surface treatment to achieve efficient resource utilization and minimize waste. For example, selecting environmentally friendly materials through networked intelligence, planning collaborative processing and efficient logistics support, and using reusable packaging are all essential elements of green design. Additionally, green design must support the full lifecycle management and maintenance of products, as well as waste recycling and disposal to promote the circular use of resources. The strategy of green design is crucial for building a green and low-carbon society because it helps reduce the damage to the natural ecological environment caused by human activities and promote harmony between human beings and nature.
