Content:
In recent years, a significant number of OECD member countries have introduced initiatives to reduce the environmentally damaging effects of public procurement. Through various policies and programmes, environmental criteria are being applied to purchasing decisions. For example, many countries have introduced "greener public purchasing" (GPP) policies in order to increase the recycled content of products or achieve specified levels of energy efficiency in capital equipment. Such measures can have direct benefits on the environmental characteristics of public procurement itself, as well as indirect benefits through their influence on firms and households.
