PREFACE
Although environmental issues influence all human activities, few academic disciplines have
integrated green issues into their literature. This is especially true of marketing. As society
becomes more concerned with the natural environment, businesses have begun to modify
their behavior in an attempt to address society's "new" concerns. Some businesses have been
quick to accept concepts like environmental management systems and waste minimization,
and have integrated environmental issues into all organizational activities. Some evidence of
this is the development of journals such as "Business Strategy and the Environment" and
"Greener Management International," which are specifically designed to disseminate research
relating to business' environmental behavior.
One business area where environmental issues have received a great deal of
discussion in the popular and professional press is marketing. Terms like "Green Marketing"
and "Environmental Marketing" appear frequently in the popular press. Many governments
around the world have become so concerned about green marketing activities that they have
attempted to regulate them. For example, in the United States (US) the Federal Trade
Commission and the National Association of Attorneys-General have developed extensive
documents examining green marketing issues. One of the biggest problems with the green
marketing area is that there has been little attempt to academically examine environmental or
green marketing. While some literature does exist, it comes from divergent perspectives.
This report will attempt to:
Introduce the terms and concepts of green marketing;
Briefly discuss why going green is important;
Examine some of the reason that organizations are adopting a green marketing
philosophy; and
Mention some of the problems with green marketing.
Find out ways to improve consumer appeal for environmentally preferable products
through different marketing strategies.
