Detailed Information:
GPP works to encourage the government to use its immense purchasing power to promote safe, cost-effective, energy-efficient, and environmentally-sound products. The government is the largest consumer in the United States, representing approximately 18 percent of the gross national product. This purchasing leverage can be an enormously effective tool which can save taxpayers money, expand the marketplace for "green" technologies, and consequently make these technologies and environmentally preferable products more available to consumers as a whole.
