  4. THE GREEN ACTION GAP • “When it asks about the specifics of green behavior, polling tends to confirm that mainstream consumers have learned to talk the talk but are still in the baby steps of walking the walk.” – Adweek 5/12/08 • Only 26 percent of Americans say they “actively seek environmentally friendly products.” – May 2008 TNS Survey • 28 percent of respondents claimed to have made “major changes” in their own shopping and living habits over the past five years to help protect the environment. – Spring 2008 Gallup Poll

  5. THE CORE GREEN AUDIENCE THE GREENCORE AUDIENCE “The most obvious market for green marketing efforts is people who are already attuned to environmental matters and to corporate responsibility in general.” – Adweek 5/12/08 “They want to know the reality behind the buzz to discover if brands are backing their eco-friendly words with authentic social responsibility action.”– BBMG founder Raphael Bemporad

  6. THE GREENCORE AUDIENCE Consumers attuned to the environment and corporate responsibility take their direction and inspiration from Natural Home, Utne Reader and Mother Earth News.
