What are eco-friendly products?

Answer 1

Eco-friendly products, also known as "green" products, are generally made with non-toxic, locally obtained, sustainable materials.

Ideally, the product's entire lifecycle -- sourcing of materials, manufacturing, distribution, marketing, sales, use, disposal and recycle or reuse -- should have minimal impact on the environment.

Examples of eco-friendly products include locally grown organic fruits and vegetables, handmade wooden toys with non-toxic paints, alternative fuel vehicles (hybrid and electric vehicles), and energy devices for buildings (solar panels and wind turbines).

Ecotechnology allows improvement in economic performance while minimizing harm to the environment by:

• increasing the efficiency in the selection and use of materials and energy sources,
• control of impacts on ecosystems,
• development and permanent improvement of cleaner processes and products,
• eco-marketing,
• introducing environmental management systems in the production and services sectors, and
• Development of activities for increasing awareness of the need for environmental protection and promotion of sustainable development by the general public.

Answer 3

Using earth friendly products come with a lot of advantages, one big advantage is they don't harm the environment. Recycled things decrease pollution as new items don't have to be produced in factories which create pollution. Recycling also reduces cost as new packaging doesn't have to be bought.
