What is Green Entrepreneurship?
Green entrepreneurship refers to consciously addressing environmental, and social problems, and needs, and the effort to provide innovative entrepreneurial ideas that aim to solve these problems. Green entrepreneurship could be a new business paradigm, consisting of the topics of entrepreneurship in general, with aspects of environmental, and welfare economics. In a simpler definition, green entrepreneurship refers to businesses that value their environmental impact deeply and, with thorough planning, have found ways to be viable profitably while protecting the environment.
