Green Marketing and Management in Emerging Markets: The Crucial Role of People Management in Successful Implementation (Palgrave Studies of Marketing in Emerging Economies)
by Ogechi Adeola Robert E. Hinson Isaiah AdisaAdverse environmental impacts such as greenhouse gas emissions and chemical spills have put the topic of green business firmly on the sustainability agenda. Despite the burgeoning literature on green business and green marketing from the globalised north, there is relative parsimony of green business literature in the global south. This book offers a greater understanding of what green marketing is, as well as the various levels of practices and the implementations thereof. It places specific emphasis on the people through which green marketing excellence can be achieved. Contributors argue that, given the complexity of green marketing, people management plays a key role in achieving green marketing success, and the chapters consider the role that green human resource management practices play in marketing.Providing a unique perspective on the successful implementation of green marketing, this book is an important resource for students, researchers and practitioners. It is of particular interest to those who desire a greater understanding of how organisations deal internally and externally with increasing pressure to become more socially responsible and embed ‘greenness’ in all their marketing activities.

Green Monday
by Dawn Lau Jose B. Alvarez Billy ChanThis case describes the entrepreneurial journey of David Yeung, from campaigning for plant-based diets to building Green Monday, a purpose-driven business and an ecosystem based in Hong Kong comprising a retail platform, an alternative meat brand ("OmniPork"), a non-profit foundation, and an impact investment arm. Green Monday had been reshaping the traditional concept of plant-based food into a modern and aspirational lifestyle by providing more food options to the growing number of flexitarian consumers in Hong Kong and beyond. But in fall 2021, challenges were emerging that could slow its rapid growth. Externally, the breakdown of the global supply chain caused by the Covid-19 pandemic was affecting the company's expansion into new markets, such as mainland China, the U.S., and Southeast Asia. Internally, the strategy of operating multiple business models was testing the startup's ability to find a balance between growing the business without diluting its strong mission and purpose. Given these constraints, Yeung had some important decisions to make regarding Green Monday's growth plans. Should he continue the multi-business strategy or should he be more focused?

Green Nanomaterials: An Agriculture and Circular Economy Alternative (Nanotechnology in the Life Sciences)
by Ram Prasad Karen Esquivel Escalante Ana Angélica Feregrino Pérez Alicia Rosales PérezSince their first appearance, nanoscience and nanotechnology have focused on diverse materials science applications and more recently on agriculture as an emerging research area. New nanomaterials synthesis methods have been explored to reduce toxicological and chemical impact on the environment, such as through biosynthesis methods – using diverse bio sources of extracts as reductive and stabilizing agents, generating a sustainable synthesis. Although nanotechnology seems to be an approach for advanced agriculture, it is essential to know all nanomaterial action mechanisms, as these materials can be beneficial to specific organisms and detrimental to others. This book provides a comprehensive and scientifically robust exploration of the synthesis, characterization, and application of green synthesized nanomaterials in agriculture, framed within the principles of the circular economy. This book bridges the gap between nanotechnology and sustainable agricultural practices, offering insights into how green nanomaterials can enhance agricultural productivity while minimizing environmental impact. This book will serve as a key reference for researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and students in the fields of nanotechnology, agriculture, and environmental science. By providing a detailed and scientifically grounded examination of green synthesized nanomaterials, the book promotes sustainable agricultural practices that align with the principles of the circular economy.
Green National Accounting in Theory and Practice: From GDP to Green GDP (Routledge Explorations in Environmental Economics)
by Peter Birch SørensenThis book explains the theoretical and empirical foundations for constructing a measure of a country’s Green GDP and how this measure relates to the conventional GDP.Opening with an overview of the academic literature on green national accounting, the first chapter sets up an analytical model of the interaction between a small open economy and the environment to derive a theoretically founded measure of the economy’s Green Net National Income (“Green GDP”). The book then illustrates how the theory can be applied in practice to produce a time series for the evolution of Denmark’s Green GDP and its various components (with an emphasis on the environment) over the last thirty years. As far as possible, the data used in the calculations were constructed in accordance with international statistical guidelines. Therefore, the careful explanation of the methodology which is outlined in the book can be applied to other countries using comparable data.This book will be of significant interest to scholars in the field of environmental economics and statisticians and practitioners working on green national accounting.
Green Nudging im E-Commerce: Wie Sie nachhaltige Kaufentscheidungen im Onlinehandel fördern
by Tamara Ebner Julian Sauer Sarah SpitzerDieses Buch bietet einen Einstieg in die Entwicklung und Herausforderungen des nachhaltigen Konsumverhaltens im E-Commerce und zeigt auf, wie mittels Nudging im Onlinehandel bewusster Konsum gefördert werden kann. In den letzten Jahren hat sich ein gesteigertes Interesse an Nachhaltigkeit entwickelt und eine Vielzahl an Konsument:innen äußert die Absicht, bei Kaufentscheidungen vornehmlich ökologischen und sozialen Aspekten mehr Gewicht einzuräumen. In der Praxis lässt sich hingegen häufig beobachten, dass diese Absichten nicht in tatsächliche Handlungen überführt werden. Insbesondere im E-Commerce verleitet das komplexe und vielfältige Angebot dazu, einfache statt bewusste Entscheidungen zu treffen. Digital Green Nudges setzen hier an und können als „Anstupser“ verstanden werden, bei Konsument:innen Verhaltensänderungen zugunsten eines bewussten, ökologischen Konsums zu erwirken. Die Autor:innen liefern einen Überblick der verschiedenen Ausprägungen von Nudging im Allgemeinen und zeigen anhand von Praxisbeispielen auf, wie diese speziell auf den nachhaltigen Onlinehandel übertragen werden können. Der vorgestellte Handlungsleitfaden sowie die Evaluierung des Nudging-Konzepts helfen Onlinehändler:innen, selbst Digital Green Nudges zu konzipieren und deren Einsatz zielorientiert zu gestalten.

Green Oslo: Visions, Planning and Discourse (Urban Planning And Environment Ser.)
by Per Gunnar RøeAs urban regions face the demand to decrease fossil fuel dependency, many cities in the developing world are undertaking initiatives designed to create a greener city by aiming for a more sustainable form of urban development and, to do so, they need to evaluate existing modes of transportation and patterns of land use. Focusing on Oslo, an early leader in urban environmental policy making and a European 'green city' award winner, it argues that this evaluation must adopt and integrate two approaches: firstly, as a process of ecological modernization based on a combination of transit, densification, and mixed use development and secondly, as an opportunity to reconsider the character and substance of the built environment as a reflection of natural values, landscapes and natural resources of the wider region. Environmental debate and concern is widespread in Oslo, and this is reflected in its earlier planning decisions to leave intact large forest reserves, its successful ecological restoration of the Oslo fjord, the importance of outdoor culture among its residents, the relatively progressive political agenda of Norway, This book provides an opportunity for a critical assessment of the limitations and opportunities inherent in 'green Oslo' and suggests the need for much broader integrative approaches. It concludes by highlighting lessons which other cities might learn from Oslo.
Green Outcomes in the Real World: Global Forces, Local Circumstances, and Sustainable Solutions
by Peter McMannersOver the last three decades the world economy has grown strongly on the back of 'globalization' supported by the policies of free-trade, open markets and privatisation. Support has also grown for the concept of 'sustainability', meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. But as the Earth's systems come under increasing strain, the inherent conflict between sustainability and globalization has been exposed. Green Outcomes in a Real World examines the shift in thinking required to reconcile these two important areas of policy. In this ground breaking book, Peter McManners has coined the term 'Proximization' to define a new policy framework. The principles of Proximization are: 'sustainability', 'subsidiarity', 'primacy of the state' and 'market economics' and the application of these familiar concepts towards a sustainable globalised world is novel and different. The author argues that adherence to the principles of proximization will return world society to a stable natural order, and will mean changes. Global commodity flows will reduce and barriers to migration will increase. National governments will demand more control over their finances leading to restrictions on capital flows. Indeed, Peter believes that an element of 'selfish determination' is needed. The new world order will be sustainable by design. Global organisations such as the UN, national governments and global corporations will have to understand and apply a different paradigm. The arguments in this book do not reflect the idealism or even naivety of some of the green movement. This book is about hard-edged reality presented by an author with huge experience and a deep understanding of the business perspective. It will appeal to a wide range of professionals involved in setting policy and future direction for businesses, governments, and non-governmental bodies, as well as to those with an academic interest in business, economics, social and environmental issues, and public policy.
