This document discusses green products and their promotion. It defines green products as those that have less environmental impact or are less harmful to human health than traditional equivalents. Green products are typically made from recycled materials, manufactured using less energy, supplied with less packaging, or made from local materials. The objective is to understand challenges to promoting green products and explore solutions. Attributes of green products include conservation of energy/water, reduced waste/emissions, recyclability, and use of renewable energy. Variables that influence green purchasing trends are supply chain, consumer perceptions of brands, eco-labeling, green marketing, energy efficiency, and use of recycled materials. There is growing demand for green buildings, automobiles, and IT products. Eco
Pauline Rutter discusses sustainability challenges including population growth, resource use, emissions, and waste. She notes the need to move from current linear systems to more circular economies where waste is viewed as a resource. Companies have an important role to play by engaging suppliers, using assurance schemes, and potentially creating natural capital through activities like reforestation and habitat restoration.
The document discusses disposition and recycling of products. It notes that disposition can occur before, during or after use of a product. It then outlines 5 ways disposition decisions can affect a firm's marketing strategy, such as consumers waiting to replace items until fully using the old one. The document also discusses different options for product disposition like keeping, converting, storing or getting rid of items temporarily or permanently. It provides examples of recycling and its benefits for the environment and economy. It highlights examples of recycling machines and e-waste recycling companies in India.
The document outlines various ways for individuals to get involved in product stewardship. It suggests that consumers can support product stewardship by buying durable, reused, and environmentally preferable goods and properly recycling or disposing of items when they are no longer needed. It also lists existing collection programs individuals can use, as well as resources provided by the Product Stewardship Institute that provide information on legislation and allow participation in discussions and networking opportunities. Individuals are invited to sign up to receive more information from the Institute.
The posted presentation is an attempt to inculcate knowledge about the Green Public Procurement Policy as a whole while primarily focusing on its coming into existence in India and the Indian policies thus adopted.

The document discusses green purchasing and defines what constitutes a green purchase according to Moonee Valley's criteria. It provides examples to illustrate the criteria. A green purchase is one that meets at least one of four criteria: 1) goods from a green supplier, 2) goods that green the business, 3) services from a green provider, or 4) services that green the business. The key aspects are that a green purchase must be an improvement over current practices and preferably meet best practices. The definition is meant to be flexible enough to accommodate progress toward more sustainable options.
GREEN STORE ATTRIBUTES AND INFRASTRUCTURE: A CONNECTING LINK BETWEEN RETAILER...IAEME Publication
Change in climate, exhaustion of renewable resources, and depletion of biodiversity
were some major consequences environment was facing from the last decade.
Understanding the menacing situation customers moved to purchase environment
friendly products. As awareness about green products and services increased it became
a principal indicator to save environment around the globe. As demand of consumers
increased manufacturers, distribution channel and retailers incorporated green
strategies in their processes taking initiatives towards green movement. As India is a
growing economy, it became obligatory to take accountable steps to safeguard the
environment; one such step is green marketing. Focus is on retailers as they are the
direct face of the product towards consumers. Retailers are also a connecting link
between manufacturers and consumers, needs from consumer in the form of
information are sent via retailers to manufacturers and goods from manufacturers to
consumers through retailers. They have optimum capability to create environmental
responsibility between manufacturers and consumers. India’s green economy is in the
nascent stage; it is claimed that retailer’s green practices would come up with multiple
benefits. It is clearly perceived, adopting green marketing, retailers would gain profit
and sustainable competitive advantage. In this paper the glimpse of the Indian retail
industry is studied along with the factors that influence consumers to purchase green
products. In the later part of the research paper the process of green practices is
conceptualized that could be opted by retailers to bring sustainability.

Consumer behaviour towards eco friendly productsManeesha Patel
1) The document discusses a study on consumer attitudes towards eco-friendly products. It analyzes whether consumers are willing to pay higher prices for eco-friendly products and the impact of environmental concerns on purchasing decisions.
2) The study found that while many consumers are aware of eco-friendly products and environmental issues, some do not consider the environmental impact of everyday purchases and are not willing to pay higher prices.
3) However, when products are clearly labeled as eco-friendly, most consumers say this would influence their purchase decision and they trust the quality of eco-friendly options. The study concludes raising environmental awareness could make such concerns a stronger driver of consumer behavior.

Applying Iterative Design to the Eco-Feedback Design Process Jon Froehlich
Although randomized controlled trials are the gold standard in evaluating the effectiveness of eco-feedback systems on reducing consumption behaviors, such trials are resource intensive and costly. As such, it is crucial that the intervention—the eco-feedback artifact—is well designed before effort is invested in a longitudinal study.
In this talk, I will discuss the application of iterative design to eco-feedback systems. Iterative design is a design methodology based on a cyclic process of prototyping, user testing, and analysis, the results of which are then used to inform a new round of prototyping (and the cycle continues). Through an 18-month design process of a prototype eco-feedback display (Froehlich, 2011), I will describe how iterative design was used to evaluate and refine the aesthetic, usability, understandability, and educational potential of an eco-feedback system before a field deployment. I will highlight the role of massive online surveys in evaluating early eco-feedback design ideas and the role of in-home interviews in evaluating higher-fidelity (more refined) designs. Finally, I will close the talk with a discussion of low-cost methods to deploy and test eco-feedback designs in the field even when underlying resource sensing systems (e.g., smart meters) are unavailable. These methods can be used to evaluate how the eco-feedback system may fit into domestic space, explore differences in perspective and preference across household members, and evaluate how the system affects household dynamics (e.g., if the design provokes privacy concerns) before behavioral trials are conducted in earnest.

Lecture Notes for Eco-design principles lectureJ. M. Korhonen
1) Sustainable design principles focus on people, planet and profit. Product development teams can help balance these demands by synthesizing solutions to complex problems.
2) There are five demands for sustainable products: being cyclic, renewable, safe, efficient, and social. Eco-design strategies include designing for longevity, disposal, reducing materials and energy, reusing, and recycling.
3) Moving from eco-efficiency to eco-effectiveness means maximizing positive effects like profit in addition to minimizing damages. This can be done through biological and technological nutrient cycles.
4) Light life cycle assessments in early design phases can be used for benchmarking, concept evaluation,
This document discusses different types of recycling including paper and cardboard, plastics, metals, and electronics. It notes that approximately 8.5 million tonnes of paper and cardboard are disposed of by industries in the UK each year. While not all plastics are recyclable, most types are. Metals are sorted into ferrous, like iron and steel, and non-ferrous, like copper and aluminum, before being recycled. Electronics like computers, printers, phones, and TVs can also be recycled to prevent global warming and reduce water pollution.

The document discusses waste and provides statistics on the amount of waste produced daily in the United States from various sources such as cell phones, cigarette packs, plastic cups, and aluminum cans. It encourages reducing, reusing, and recycling to minimize waste and includes tips for doing so such as replacing disposables with reusable items, donating usable goods, renting instead of buying new, and participating in local recycling programs. Specific reusable items mentioned include grocery bags, bottles, magazines, clothing, and batteries. The document emphasizes that recycling keeps useful materials from ending up in landfills and stresses that environmental protection requires individual action from each person.
This presentation was given at the OAA Convention in Toronto in 2009 and looks at the implications of the adoption of the 2030 Challenge. It also examines strategies to include to target low carbon design. Several low carbon buildings are studied.
The document discusses ways for individuals to reduce, reuse, and recycle in their everyday lives to help the environment. It covers topics such as insulating attics to reduce heat loss, using reusable batteries, hanging curtains to insulate windows, composting organic waste in the garden, choosing fruits without packaging, turning off lights when not in use, and recycling materials like aluminum cans, newspapers, and Christmas trees. The overall message is that small actions by many people can collectively make a positive impact.

Eco-feedback technology provides feedback on individual or group behaviors with a goal of reducing environmental impact. The history of eco-feedback extends back more than 40 years to the origins of environmental psychology. Despite its stated purpose, few HCI eco-feedback studies have attempted to measure behavior change. This leads to two overarching questions: (1) what can HCI learn from environmental psychology and (2) what role should HCI have in designing and evaluating eco-feedback technology? To help answer these questions, this paper conducts a comparative survey of eco-feedback technology, including 89 papers from environmental psychology and 44 papers from the HCI and UbiComp literature.

2. Production with destruction For several decades, consumer society has focused on profit , producing and consuming more and more. As a consequence natural resources are overexplored, the air and water polluted, plant and animal species have disappeared, and waste proliferates.
3. Production without Destruction Breaking this chain means taking urgent action to “produce more with less.”, limiting waste and avoiding excess and pollution. Some companies have already adopted this approach and have taken sustainable development onboard in their strategies. It has become a political issue too.
4. Stages of an ecodesign product - The extraction of the raw materials (renewable biodegradable materials are better options); - The manufacturing of the product; - Its marketing and distribution; - The use; - And the disposal of a product.
