Green engineering embraces the concept that decisions to protect human health and the environment can have the greatest impact and cost effectiveness when applied early to the design and development phase of a process or product, which is pathetically avoided by today’s business concerns. In terms of green engineering design and manufacturing sustainability we consider an ecofriendly state, or process that can be maintained over time, for a very long time, the ability of an ecosystem to maintain ecological advanced design and manufacturing processes and functions, biological diversity, and productivity over time, and green sustainability meeting present design and manufacturing needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The sustainable green advanced design and manufacturing concept also emphasizes that the creation of wealth within the community; considers the well-being of both the human as well as natural environments; and is focused on the more complex processes of development rather than on simple growth or accumulation only.
