Idea

In common usage and in philosophy, ideas are the results of thought. Eco-innovation and idea are innovation.

See Eco-innovation and Idea

Innovation

Innovation is the practical implementation of ideas that result in the introduction of new goods or services or improvement in offering goods or services. Eco-innovation and Innovation are design, innovation economics, product management and Science and technology studies.

See Eco-innovation and Innovation

International Innovation Index

The International Innovation Index is a global index measuring the level of innovation of a country, produced jointly by The Boston Consulting Group (BCG), the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), and The Manufacturing Institute (MI), the NAM's nonpartisan research affiliate. Eco-innovation and International Innovation Index are innovation.

NIMBY

NIMBY (or nimby), an acronym for the phrase "not in my back yard", is a characterization of opposition by residents to proposed real estate development and infrastructure developments in their local area, as well as support for strict land use regulations.

See Eco-innovation and NIMBY

Recycling

Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects.

Solar panel

A solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity by using photovoltaic (PV) cells.

See Eco-innovation and Solar panel

Solar power

Solar power, also known as solar electricity, is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV) or indirectly using concentrated solar power. Eco-innovation and solar power are Bright green environmentalism.

See Eco-innovation and Solar power

Sustainability

Sustainability is a social goal for people to co-exist on Earth over a long time.
