An entrepreneur is a person with a business idea
for a product or service who takes the initiative and risks involved to make
this idea a reality. A green entrepreneur, also known as an “ecological
entrepreneur,” is someone whose product or service benefits the environment, or
improves upon a product or service that is currently causing environmental
damage. Green entrepreneurs are driven by a desire to solve
environmental/social problems, as well as make a profit. They build business
models founded upon “triple bottom line” principles, taking into account
people, the planet, and profits.
