Green Procurement (Purchase)

A movement was started in the Global Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 to aim for a sustainable recycling-oriented society and proposing that corporations should preferentially procure products, parts, and primary and secondary materials that cause reduced environmental impact. Eco-products are achieved by the efforts of the green procurement network with the cooperation of manufacturers.
