In the decision-making of enterprise technology innovation, it is usually unwise to ignore the opinions of a few members who are concerned about the research and development of environmentally friendly materials. The following points can explain why: 1. **Sustainable development trend**: Globally, there is an increasing concern about environmental protection and sustainable development. Consumers, governments and investors are paying more and more attention to the performance of enterprises in environmental protection. Ignoring the research and development of environmentally friendly materials may cause enterprises to lose market competitiveness in the future. 2. **Diversity of innovation**: Diversified research and development directions help enterprises achieve breakthroughs in different fields and avoid over-reliance on a single technology or market trend. The views of a few team members may bring new perspectives and innovation opportunities, driving the success of enterprises in different fields. 3. **Risk diversification**: Smart technology products that rely on market popularity may face the risk of technological obsolescence or market saturation. Although the research and development of environmentally friendly materials may be relatively niche at present, it may become a new growth point in the future as policies and market demands change. 4. **Corporate social responsibility (CSR)**: More and more companies realize that taking on social responsibility not only helps brand image, but also brings long-term business benefits. The research and development of environmentally friendly materials is in line with the social responsibility of enterprises and helps to build a good reputation and customer loyalty. 5. **Policy support**: Many countries and regions are introducing policies and subsidies to support environmentally friendly technologies and sustainable development. Investing in the research and development of environmentally friendly materials may gain policy support and financial assistance, reducing research and development costs. In summary, although most R&D team members may currently prefer to invest in popular smart technology products in the market, companies should consider different opinions when making decisions, especially those that have the potential to bring long-term benefits and are in line with global development trends. By balancing mainstream and non-mainstream R&D investments, companies can better cope with future uncertainties and achieve sustainable development.
