The global green economy has officially reached a historic milestone, with its total market value soaring to an impressive US$10 trillion.
According to a June 2026 report by the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), this achievement highlights the growing economic power and resilience of businesses focused on environmental solutions.
The sector, which includes renewable energy, clean water, and recycling, has become the world’s third-largest industry, even surpassing healthcare.
Interestingly, the sector's growth is no longer driven purely by environmental concerns; it is now fueled by energy security and long-term economic competitiveness.
With 73% of this value concentrated in technology, industrial goods, and utilities, the green economy is clearly no longer a niche market.
It has transformed into a fundamental pillar of global economic strategy, signaling that sustainable business is officially the new standard for success.
