Many think that green manufacturing simply requires the establishment of pollution controls or recycling programs when producing goods. But the fact is that green manufacturing processes seek to minimize the impact of the production process on the environment at every stage. Therefore, preventing pollution can only be half the battle; Green manufacturing also means that companies must change the input (use of raw materials) and output (product sales) processes. Taking all these factors into account, we can say that green manufacturing focuses on three main goals: first, to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, effluents and accidents; Second, minimizing the
.use of raw materials and forms of non-renewable energy, and third, minimizing the life cycle cost of products or services
