ECOPRENEUR 2012
Foreword
During past 20th century humanity striving for accomplishment technological era but environmentally issues
caused by human grow up and today’s society and economy necessary require it as priority things.
Ecological issue is concern to everyone who we live who we are now in globalizing world and all country all
nations combine in trend of environment friendly green economy
Nearly two decades ago, the Earth Summit in 1992 resulted in some positive environmental protection actions.
The countries agreed to develop emissions inventories and action plans and to conduct cooperative research
where data and technologies are shared. Developed countries should be responsible for most of the economic
burden for climate remediation and pollution prevention costs. The developing countries have been instructed
to reduce their aggregate emissions, yet their discharge amounts are very small relative to the developed
nations.
Thus world economy changing trend for to back up only technological industry and starting to pay more
attention in “ Resource saving clean industry ”. Terms such “Green industry”, “Green growth” “Invest green”
“greening the economy” ”green business ” necessary come up in today’s society. Therefore, businesses which
is main force of economy have to work first
Thus, increase corporate responsibility for environment: smart product design, eco friendly material
development, recyclable usage and standard , clean technology. The environmental challenges facing
industrial companies and governments throughout the world are numerous and complex. Most governments
and industrial companies now clearly realize and embrace the paradigm that environmental issues are
intertwined with social/ cultural and socioeconomic issues. In fact, social and cultural concerns may far
outweigh all other factors as industry and government make critical decisions regarding environmental issues.
At the center of major global environmental challenges for industry are energy strategies, energy projects, other
natural resource exploitation, and designing manufacturing life cycles to minimize future impacts. The mineral
resource industries (mining and oil and gas) have generally embraced the concepts of sustainable development
and preservation biodiversity, but putting sustainability and biodiversity concepts into play is a “work-in
progress” for most companies

REASON OF ECOPRENEUR INITIATIVE
In World human development report mentioned priority things of human development are knowledge based
economy, adaptation in climate changing, keeping ecosystem, food safety and human health . In Rio 27
declaration of UN Environmental conference 1992 addressed that sustainable development is safe living in
safe environment. Acknowledging that the last decade has been a period of significant global change and
underscoring the importance of the Millennium Development Goals and amongst those in particular the goal
“to free all of humanity, and above all our children and grandchildren, from the threat of living on a planet
irredeemably spoiled by human activities, and whose resources would no longer be sufficient for their needs.”
Welcoming the conclusions of the World Summit on Sustainable Development held in Johannesburg, South
Africa, in August/September 2002, that deepened and strengthened the concept and principles of sustainable
development, confirmed the importance of multilateral action at the global level and the principle of common
but differentiated responsibilities as set out in principle 7 of the Rio Declaration on Environment and
Development, and endorsed as a critical priority the effective implementation of the WSSD Plan of
Implementation.
Never in the history of our planet has the human species come so close to exhausting the natural resources of
the planet that gives us life. Statistical evidence and scientific research point overwhelmingly to the urgent need
for business to produce, trade and consume responsibly. The Brundtland Commission’s 1987 definition of
sustainable development as conducting business “that meets the needs of the present without compromising the
ability of future generations to meet their own needs”, highlights the necessity of sustainability as a business
principle. On a planet where 20% of the world’s population consumes 80% of the natural resources, legislation
has become more rigorous in the enforcement of business ideals to also include a means to achieve a more
satisfactory intellectual, emotional, moral and spiritual existence.

In order to illustrate their commitment to green diligence, corporate need to come up with a social and
environment responsibility strategy, employing a holistic approach to the interrelationships necessary in order
to bring harmony between nature and growth.
Although there are some progresses in protecting the environment as result of the conference on Humanity and
Environment in Stockholm before 30 years, the state of the environment is still an international critical
problem. The concept of the sustainable development was formulated in Rio de Janeiro at the world Summit 10
years ago. There is a need to resolve number of global problems in order to ensure the universal human right to
live in an ecologically secure environment and to enable the sustainable development environment. Clean water
and sanitation, energy, agriculture productivity, biological diversity and ecosystem management and health are
critical and also are the large problems at global dimensions. The author considered number of factors in
connection with these critical global problems and suggested appropriate policy recommendations.
Concept of “ECOPRENEUR”
There are many ways in which entrepreneurs and ecopreneurs are similar. Both embrace failure and are idea
driven, innovative, creative, risk tolerant, flexible, adaptable, freedom minded and independent.
Ecopreneurs are the central actors in an incipient, bottom-up green revolution. Motivated by a myriad of
governmental incentives, a rising consumer demand for “green,” eco-friendly products, and a sense of personal
initiative, ecopreneurs are driving innovation through creative, environmentally friendly products and services,
starting up new companies in order to catalyze environmental progress. An ecopreneur is an individual who
approaches business with a mindset that profit and ecological mission both.
Entrepreneurs become ecopreneurs when their spirit, boldness, courage and determination not only transform
the landscape but coalescence into a movement to transform global problems into opportunities for restoration
and healing. Though, historically, business and environmental progress have had a tense relationship,
successful businesses focused on protecting the planet promise to unite the creativity and financial interests of
individual owners with ecological richness and the collective interests of society. Finally, green entrepreneur
is “Ecopreneur”
