The New Green Revolution - GCSE Geography Definition

Reviewed by: Bridgette Barrett

Published

The New Green Revolution refers to a modern movement aimed at increasing food production in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way. It builds on past advances but focuses more on using new technologies, such as genetically modified crops, precision farming, and better irrigation methods, to produce more food with less damage to the environment. The goal is to meet the food needs of a growing global population while protecting natural resources and reducing pollution. The New Green Revolution also considers the impacts of climate change and aims to make farming more resilient to weather changes. This approach is important for GCSE Geography students as it links to topics on food security, sustainable development, and environmental management.
