Increasing economic growth has also accelerated population and urbanization growth, which has led to a sharp decline in natural resources and environmental impacts on the economic sector. Natural resource and environmental issues have formed a specific set of problems at this stage of development, due to inefficient use of natural resources and ignorant of natural capital. Therefore, in order to reduce the environmental damage and the growing social inequality of economy, it is necessary to transform patterns of production and consumption, and thus of the whole economy. A new approach to economic policy, such as the modernization of classical economics to the green economy, can solve complex problems. The green economy approach contributes to the prosperity and increased employment of the people through governmental and social investments, and prevents adverse effects on the environment, thereby results in increasing the effective efficiency of energy and resources, as well as preventing damage to biodiversity and ecosystems. For this reason, in the context of green economy debates, it is necessary to develop policies at the global, regional and national levels in order to achieve its goals, including economic recovery, job creation, and sustainability of ecosystems and the achievement of sustainable development goals.
