Natural resources constitute the basis of life. Water, air, soil, animals, minerals and vegetation are the main natural resources. Although seemingly endless, these resources are decreasing rapidly due to the irresponsible and unconscious use of people. The duty of people and organizations should be to protect natural resources, not to destroy them. The wastes left by people and businesses to nature over the years have caused the species living here to decline or even disappear. Industrial facilities are of course needed for the development of our country, but the important thing is to use the resources sparingly and without pollution. The harmful wastes left in the soil caused the soil to lose its properties and become inefficient over time. The soil is deprived of vegetation and it becomes desert. Water resources, forests and underground resources are gradually decreasing as a result of unconscious consumption. Natural resources are the cause of life for humans and all living things, but natural resources are running out and living life is approaching a halt. In addition to the depletion of natural resources, the depletion of the ozone layer with the effect of the gases released into the air, the beginning of climate changes, the start of global warming and the glaciers.

Some researches show that this sensitivity is used as a marketing tool today due to the increasing interest in ecological products. This inevitably creates a serious reliability problem for these products and services. Foreigners call this approach greenwash, so don't show green. This type of activity is an activity to mislead consumers about a firm's products or services or its environmental actions. In this case, it is not understood whether a product is an ecological product or is trying to be shown ecologically. However, consumers may still receive some signals. For example, if an emphasis is placed on a single feature of products or services instead of an overall environmental analysis, or if the company cannot provide clear evidence, these situations should raise suspicion. If there are uncertainties in the company's statements that may lead to misunderstandings or if unwarranted claims are made on different subjects, these behaviors should also raise suspicion. Some companies try to draw the attention of the consumer to another point by emphasizing the less important of the two different effects. That's why human…

Environmental pollution is the mixing of foreign substances that adversely affect the vital activities of living organisms in nature, impair the qualities of inanimate elements such as air, water and soil, and cause structural damage. The damage caused by environmental pollution created directly by human beings on nature is growing day by day. Natural resources are running out and the approaching danger is moving to a point where it cannot meet the needs in the face of increasing population. Climate changes are happening globally, global warming is making itself felt better, ecosystems collapse and ozone layer thinning is coming to the point of breaking. If no action is taken, a clean world does not await future generations. It is too late to take action today. In such an environment, private and public institutions have been involved in a number of studies and strive to protect nature and prevent harm to human health. Under these conditions, our organization has prepared the Ekomark © Standard by acting with a sense of social responsibility. Nobody should stand by this situation, which threatens human health and causes destruction of the environment. A contaminated with toxic substances ...

When it comes to healthy life, it always comes to mind to avoid alcohol and smoking, to protect the heart, to exercise and to take care of proper nutrition. Of course, these are necessary to have a healthy body. Experts also recommend moving away from the city and staying alone with nature for a healthy life. This is also a very meaningful suggestion. If you pay attention, there are two important points in terms of human health. The first point is to take care of proper nutrition. However, it is not only meant to choose the right products for nutrition and to convert these products into food with the right methods. It is also meant that the products are produced in the right way and that they do not contain hazardous substances and chemicals that will harm human health, and even be packaged correctly. The second point is the protection of nature. Keeping nature clean and not polluting is essential for human health, but more importantly for future generations. Producing the products in ecological balance and in the most natural ways, not using chemicals that will accelerate the production or ripen early, the purest forms of the seeds and seedlings used ...

Ecology is a branch of biology that studies living organisms and their relationships with their environment. The ecological cycle, on the other hand, is the constant circulation of substances such as water, minerals, nitrogen, oxygen and carbon by transforming into various forms between living things, water, air and soil. The area that is a habitat for living organisms, between the depth of one thousand meters of the bottom of the oceans and six thousand meters above sea level, is called the biosphere in biology. The biosphere layer consists of water, air and soil and is a habitat for living things. Biologically, the animals living in this area are called fauna and all plants are called flora. Living things in a certain area within the biosphere layer form a cluster. The relationships of these living clusters with the physical environment, that is, the inanimate environment, form ecosystems. The ecosystem is a community of life and contains three groups of living things: producers, consumers and decomposers. The producers are photosynthetic creatures. Consumers are generally carnivores and herbivores. Decomposers consist of bacteria and fungi. Producers photosynthesize, consumers breathe,…

Destroyed living spaces, global warming and climate changes, environmental pollution, irregular and unplanned settlements and unhealthy societies are the biggest problems of today. Unfortunately, it is people who create these problems. Unplanned urbanization and bad consumption habits create these problems. More than half of the world's population lives in cities. This rate is much higher in developing countries. Unless people change their lifestyles and consumption habits, the brutal destruction of nature can neither be prevented nor healthy generations can grow. One of the reasons for today's global environmental problems is the high increase in fossil fuel use after the industrial revolution in western countries. Dependence on available energy resources has reached an extreme level. The threat posed by the greenhouse effect released into the atmosphere in this century is now well known. Efforts to protect nature and at least to minimize the damage to nature are accelerating. When it comes to sustainability, the protection of nature comes to mind immediately. At the basis of the concept of sustainability is the protection of the natural environment, but the work is not limited to this. Environmental protection works are the only ...

The ecological label system was first introduced in the European Union countries. With the directive issued by the Council of Europe in 1992, environmental criteria were determined on the basis of product groups, and companies whose products and services met these criteria were allowed to use Eco-Labels. As a matter of fact, there are other applications on environmental labels that have been launched before this one. For example, the Blue Angel Label, which was applied in Germany and accepted in other European and world countries in a short time, has been used since 1978. This environmental label, like the Eco-Label, has been developed for many products other than food and medicine. However, the legal regulation related to the Eco-Label entered into the domestic law of the European Union countries in a short time and started to be accepted not only in the European Union countries but also all over the world. However, there are other ecological product labels developed in the European Union countries and applied in their own countries. Among them, the most well-known ones are the Nordic Swan Label valid in Sweden, Norway, Iceland and Finland and the ECO Quality Symbol developed in the Netherlands. These ecological labels are just…
