GREEN ECONOMY. The ‘green economy’ concept has many definitions and is used differently in a range of contexts.

UNEP (2011) claim that environmental sustainability and economic growth can be reached simultaneously by engaging in opportunities delivered by the development of green sectors, and are not necessarily contradictions, as previously believed.
