Abstract

The global economy has been focusing on the significance of concepts related to sustainability for more than thirty years. It is essential to comprehend the main areas that the international community can address in order to ensure sustainable development practices while addressing environmental challenges. The concept of a "green economy" highlights the potential financial benefits that global economies can experience from moving toward sustainable development. The secondary data sources used for this academic study were gathered from a variety of secondary data sources, including information found in books, journals, newspapers, reports, and other publications. The factors that drive employment and income growth in a green economy are its capacity to lower carbon emissions and pollution, enhance energy and resource efficiency, stop the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services, and invest in infrastructure and commercial ventures.


Public and private investment in these areas is crucial. To facilitate and encourage these green investments, targeted public spending, policy modifications, and tax and regulatory adjustments are all required. Employment and income growth are driven by a green economy's potential to reduce carbon emissions and pollution, enhance energy and resource efficiency, stop the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services, and invest in infrastructure and commercial ventures. Investing both public and private funds in these fields is essential. Tax and regulatory changes targeted public spending, and policy changes are all necessary to support and encourage these green initiatives. We must make this adjustment even though it is unlikely to be easy to execute if we are to ever accomplish the Sustainable Development Goals.
