摘要：This paper investigates the trend of greening the SMEs sector by means of creating publicprivate partnerships. There are two main theoretical concepts used to frame the debate – social corporate responsibility and eco-efficiency. The paper describes and analyzes one possible tool local governments have in order to encourage SMEs to become more efficient from an environmental standpoint – the Ecoprofit-type approach. Ecoprofit is a program implemented in Austria and then extended to other countries in which local governments offer training and certificates to SMEs who want to become more eco-efficient. In the empirical research we tested: a) the perceptions and attitudes of SMEs with regard to the greening of their operations and products/ services; and b) whether Romanian SMEs would be interested in taking part in such a program. The conclusion is that SMEs perceive environmental management as a burden and tend to comply only with the mandatory requirements of the law.
