Abstract
As society's environmental consciousness grows, the importance of consumer awareness regarding eco-friendly products becomes increasingly significant. Sustainable goods are those designed to minimize their impact on the environment throughout their lifecycle, from production to consumption and disposal. Examples include reusable shopping bags, recyclable cleaning products, and energy-efficient appliances. To make informed choices, consumers interested in purchasing eco-friendly products can conduct research on the items they need and scrutinize labels to understand their ecological footprint. Additionally, seeking independent certifications such as Energy Star or Forest Stewardship Council can help ensure that products meet specific environmental standards. Moreover, consumers can educate themselves on the environmental implications associated with the production and disposal of products. This paper underscores the theoretical importance of consumer awareness in promoting the adoption of eco-friendly practices.
