Green value added
Abstract
Purpose: To provoke thought, and perhaps responses, to a radical view of “green marketing” and its place in society. Design/methodology/approach: This paper is essentially an essay but, based on a careful review of the relevant literature, several empirical studies conducted by the authors themselves, and some practical experience in green marketing. Findings: The key challenge for green marketers has been in the past and will be more so in the future to strengthen individuals' perception of the individual benefits to be gained from “going green” by adding more and stronger emotional values to green brands. Future green marketing research should extend its analysis to the emotional motivations and benefits associated with environmentally responsible consumption behaviour. Research limitations/implications: This essay is not based on a specific empirical study; it expresses a personal point of view, albeit well grounded in theory and practice. Green branding is a promising topic for future research. Practical implications: The propositions put and conclusions drawn can form the basis of a potentially valuable toolkit for those planning marketing and communication strategies for green products and services. Originality/value: The role of emotional benefits, particularly those based on the hypothetical human affinity with nature, has scarcely been attended to until now, in the field of green marketing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
