Great draft Marcin! From the GreEn framework I can well imagine how much effort such an inclusive document costs! Here are few remarks from my personal perspective ( Sorry for writing this long comment, I didn´t have time to write a short one
) You mention “Meassurments” in layer 8, but I would say [...] -

With so much mentioning of “good business and marketing skills” being the key for a Green Entrepreneur. We wonder what exactly this means to you: What are good business skills and marketing skills? We believe that there are many people out there who are selling their products and services because they have these “great business [...]

We have chosen! It was very difficult… Out of 39 super applications from around the world we had to select only a handful to be our and your Young Community Representatives at our Co-Creation Workshop in Brussels on December, 8-10. Obviously this made it a very tough job: trying to balance this small group of [...]

Leander, GEF Team commented on the blog post Bioplastics 2 years, 7 months ago · View
Jean Claude, this is a great topic/niche to explore. Remember how renewable energies were perceived 30 years ago (not that I can remember personally, but I think we get the picture…;-)) Even if bio-plasitcs couldn´t compete on the market, it might still pay on many levels to invest into this. And this I mean not [...]
Thanks Leander for your comments;
you see , what you say is right ; every thing under haven is done by people . if people understand well all the issues of the environment protection , sure Bioplastics production can be promoted and become costly competitive with petro-plastics .
For you ( europeans ) you are lucky because your leaders understand the utility of promoting products made by 100 % of renewable materials . It will not take long time to find yourselves in an environmental friendly industry world.Regards.

Thanx Qamer for pointing to this very important issue. I think the role of women is undervalued in most walks of live, especially when it comes to economics. Marilyn Waring was one of the first economists to raise the issue of how the domesitc and informal labor of women is not accounted for (e.g. in GDP) [...]

Awsome Marcin! Could you post a link to the Monty Python scene!? Just realized not even my colleagues are sufficiently movie-literate to share my laughter

Hi guys, important points made so far, still let me try and introduce two notions into this discussion: 1) Green doesn´t only mean environmentally friendly and renewable in this Forum, but also includes the social, and personal aspect of any enterprise, small or societal. 2) Political will and economic viability are systemically the same thing.
