This chapter describes the environmental challenges of green energies and technologies, considering the impact on the different environmental sectors at both the global and local levels. Special emphasis is given to the emissions into the atmosphere of global contaminants such as greenhouse gases, but also local air pollutants. Impacts on soil and groundwater are then discussed in details. For all these topics, insights are provided on the mitigation strategies available and the open challenges to be still addressed
