Book excerpt: Excessive pollution has provoked the nature, and the nature starts behaving in unnatural ways (in form of global warming versus global cooling, heavy rains versus draught, and other natural calamities like frequent earthquakes and tsunami, cyclones, epidemics, and so forth). Economic growth via production and consumption threatens peaceful life of human beings on the earth. Environment-friendly eco-green marketing is an attempt to protect consumer welfare and environment (the nature) through production, consumption, and disposal of eco-friendly products. Basically, green marketing is concerned with three aspects: 1. promotion of production and consummation of pure/quality products, 2. fair and just dealing with customers and society, and 3. protection of ecological environment. Thus, green marketing is a marketing philosophy that promotes production and selling of pure (eco-friendly) products with protection of ecological balance. Green marketing involves multiple activities. Green marketing encourages production of pure products by pure technology, conservation of energy, preservation of environment, minimum use of natural resources, and more use of natural foods instead of processed foods. Efforts of people, social organizations, firms, and governments in this regard can be said as green marketing efforts. Green marketing raises the voice against production, consumption, and/or disposal of such products that harm consumers, the society, and the environment anyway. It is necessary that businessmen and users should refrain from harmful products.

Book excerpt: Every other day we read new about a fossil recently found that shows us the traces of our ancestors. We, being humans and creatures of this world have always left traces of us behind. But traces of this and previous century are not what we should leave for our future generations. Because this plastic waste these holes in ozone will endanger the lives of people and there will be extremely bad consequences. Nonrenewable energy sources are causing pollution around the world and are adding to entropy. Plastic will not degrade for coming thousands of years, and we are basically synthesizing things that is beyond natures ability to decompose easily. All this calls for production of material that does the job and is not harmful for our environment. During the old times, there were no shopping bags. People used to carry cloth bags in old days, now paper bags are their environment friendly replacement, which is not very great idea either since we are cutting down trees for that. This book was written keeping in mind all the troubles caused by using products that are harmful for environment and progress of this world toward creating eco-friendly products was discussed. The idea of creating the products that will protect the environment and make it a better place for current and upcoming generations. One of the main problems of using chemical dyes to color the clothes has made its way towards utilizing the dyes that are natural or digital alternatives. Tanneries are popular for releasing chemicals and metals that are toxic for other living things and we do not even realize how much plastic waste our single shopping trip produces. Fuels produced from renewable sources, plastic bag alternatives and some environmentally friendly items help people save money. Energy-saving appliances minimize energy and utility costs while using fewer natural resources. Currently, most businesses prefer employing eco-friendly resources to make items rather than conventional ones in order to protect the environment. In addition to the fact that global warming has gotten worse since the turn of the century, many businesses have started producing eco-friendly goods. When choosing to manufacture items, some businesspeople find it quite challenging to create a sustainable atmosphere. Because the business will be under pressure to develop new technologies to produce a product that is both dependable and environmentally friendly. This book will give you a ride of the replacements of products harmful for environment and how their better alternatives are helping the environment get back on track.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • In this urgent, authoritative book, Bill Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical—and accessible—plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe. Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet's slide to certain environmental disaster. In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal. He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions—suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise. As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our reach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A manifesto for a radically different philosophy and practice of manufacture and environmentalism "Reduce, reuse, recycle" urge environmentalists; in other words, do more with less in order to minimize damage. But as this provocative, visionary book argues, this approach perpetuates a one-way, "cradle to grave" manufacturing model that dates to the Industrial Revolution and casts off as much as 90 percent of the materials it uses as waste, much of it toxic. Why not challenge the notion that human industry must inevitably damage the natural world? In fact, why not take nature itself as our model? A tree produces thousands of blossoms in order to create another tree, yet we do not consider its abundance wasteful but safe, beautiful, and highly effective; hence, "waste equals food" is the first principle the book sets forth. Products might be designed so that, after their useful life, they provide nourishment for something new-either as "biological nutrients" that safely re-enter the environment or as "technical nutrients" that circulate within closed-loop industrial cycles, without being "downcycled" into low-grade uses (as most "recyclables" now are). Elaborating their principles from experience (re)designing everything from carpeting to corporate campuses, William McDonough and Michael Braungart make an exciting and viable case for change.
