AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO GREEN ENVIRONMENT-
Government Role
There has to be a stimulus provided by the Government to encourage and supportthe manufacturers who are manufacturing green products by providing subsidies.
Financial assistance should be given in the form of easy loan facility to equip formanufacturing green products.
Tax incentives or Tax holidays will also help the small and medium scalemanufacturers as green marketing is costly.
Awards and recognition should be given to those who successfully practice greenmarketing which becomes a motivating factor for others to implement it.
Social advertising to be carried out on a large scale through various medias topromote environment friendly practices, to promote the consumption of greenproducts.
Promotion of Eco-mark or Eco-labeling has to be done to create awareness not only
amongst manufacturers but also consumers05/05/2012 24
