In a world where greenwashing accusations run rampant and green purchasing seems a fickle, niche trend at best, green products and consumers have continued to evolve for the 21st century. Today, sustainable products and their corporate manufacturers must not only surpass business as usual regulatory requirements, but also perform as well or better than traditional products. Meanwhile, green purchasers, once limited to eco-conscious environmentalists, have broadened to include much wider demographics, especially as Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) marketing has generated an over $200 billion U.S. industry comprising nearly 70 million consumers. No longer limited to ecolabels and recycled packaging, green marketing strategy must successfully juggle product eco-innovation, brand identity, corporate CSR, and interactive communication in an authentic, transparent, and creative way- a feat that is easier said than done.
