Present an index that is an indicator of Green Productivity and that allows to compare products, services and productive processes. |
Theoretical and Empirical study. - Supply of theoretical basis for the measurement of Green Productivity from an index, the IGP (Green Productivity Index); - Define that the Green Productivity is the result of the inversely proportional relation between two constructs (productivity and environmental impact). |
- Quantitative work that did not present, into the perspective of the GP, a qualitative analysis that would aid in the description of the productive process of the studied petrochemical company and in which the index was applied; - It considers only as constructs of the GP the productivity and the environmental impact, which have specific forms of measurement for its use in the IGP. |

To propose a measurement and improvement approach of the GP through the calculation of the IGP and RGP for the comparison of alternatives of Green Productivity in the process of manufacture of polystyrene. |
Theoretical and empirical study - Development of theory and practice of GP metrics; - Provides base for researchers in thedefinition of GP indexes for calculation of Productivity performance in productive processes. |
- From the perspective of the GP, a qualitative analysis is lacking to assist in the evaluation of a productive system; - The proposal is restricted to the IGP definition at the production process level. - It does not evaluate GP aspects at the organization level. |

|
Analyze and estimate numerically the environmental loads related to the life cycle of the beverage vending machines. |
Empirical study - Dissemination of the application of RGP metrics to evaluate alternatives that can minimize environmental impacts; - Use of GP to evaluate the reduction of environmental loads during the manufacture of a product. |
- The applied methodology did not consider in the metric the economic aspects of the life cycle of the machines; - The proposal is restricted to the use of GP at the product level; - It does not evaluate aspects of the GP at the organization level, which could influence the environmental loads. |

|
It proposes to develop a diagnostic model for the quantification of GP in manufacturing processes through software as an intelligent support for decision taking. |
Theoretical study; - It shows that GP generates opportunities to improve resource utilization and waste reduction in industry; - Integration of tools in the application of GP. |
- Limited analysis to the environmental construct, lacking to incorporate economic aspects; - Application of the GP restricted to the production process. |

in order to use the IGP to compare products; Until then it had only been used to compare processes. |
- Definitions of environmental impacts were restricted to only three variables; - Only production costs are included in the calculations; - Use of Green Productivity just to evaluate product, it does not involve aspects of the organization as a whole. |

Apply Green Productivity to reduce waste and increase productivity. |
Empirical study - Linkage of waste reduction (aspect linked to the environmental protection and reduction of resource consumption) to the productivity into the perspective of GP. |
- Restricted results to the economic quantification of residues and their linkage with productivity; - Application of the GP restricted to the production process. |

Measuring the Green Productivity in 70 countries in a period from 1981 to 2007. |
Empirical study - The breadth of the studied countries allows the definition of a panorama in the studied period. |
Difficult understanding of the quantitative methodology applied, due to the number of data presented. |
