"This book well describes how organizations need to manage their resources and goals in turbulent times. . . . Marketers need to recognize the role of limited resources, high environmental costs, and the growing warming of our planet. Marketers need to modernize their procedures for pricing, distribution, branding, and product creation. The purpose of the marketing team is to achieve good profits within a strong policy and practice of sustainability. Companies must adopt the mantra of "reduce, reuse, and recycle" in developing their products, services. and marketing plans. We need to advance green marketing as a core task. Support for a healthy planet should be part of your regular brand messaging."
