Green Products Effects on Quality of Life of Physically Disable People

Abstract

The existing literature suggests that green product innovation serves as a means for businesses to distinguish themselves and gain a competitive advantage. Concurrently, socioeconomic data indicate a rising number of handicapped individuals in emerging nations. Despite this, current research lacks a widely agreed-upon definition of green products, and scholarly empirical data on how green products impact the quality of life (QoL) for physically disabled individuals are inconclusive. Some studies propose that socially isolated individuals exhibit different beliefs and behaviors than the general population. To address this in the context of disability, a literature review was conducted on green products and QoL. This paper's primary contribution lies in establishing a definition for green products and the QoL of physically disabled individuals. Additionally, the paper uncovers issues that warrant consideration in evaluating the effect of green products on the QoL of physically disabled individuals.
