GREEN ECONOMY. DOES IT INCLUDE YOU?

This year’s theme is Green Economy: Does it include you? The UN Environment Programme defines the Green Economy as one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities.

Building Green Economies

In its simplest expression, a green economy can be thought of as one which is a low carbon, resource-efficient and socially inclusive.

“ We want a future where we can live in a healthy setting, with strong bonds to nature and a rich diversity of social relations. For this, we need a flourishing environment. We need to create green economies. ”.

Irina Bokova,
UNESCO Director-General, in her message on the occasion of World Environment Day 2012.
