The use of inhibitors is one of the most practical methods to save metals against corrosion from aggressive media. Corrosion is encountered in numerous sectors, and the studies summarized corrosion costs equivalent to 3% of each nation's gross domestic product (GDP) and can be estimated to be US$2.5 trillion. This review presents a prospection using plant extracts as green corrosion inhibitors considered as the friendship of the environment. The scientific articles on Scopus until the year 2022 were 2460 documents. For example, prof Ramezanzadeh Bahram from the Info Institute for Color Science and Technology, Tehran, Iran published more than 400 global papers followed by prof Hammouti, known at the University of Mohammed First in Oujda, Morocco.
