Book excerpt: Green Marketing Revolution: Unveiling the Power of Sustainable Business introduces the key issues of green marketing practices and sustainable production and consumption practices for a delicate balance of ecosystems and promotes the environmental resilience of sustainable business operations in the competitive global economy. Green marketing contributes to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) like Climate Action (Goal 13), Responsible Consumption and Production (Goal 12), and Life on Land (Goal 15). The professorial inaugural lecture series by Professor Ts. Dr. Norazah Mohd Suki shares key insights that have helped green marketing gain prominence in today’s corporate landscape and changed the way businesses think about their commitment to sustainability. She emphasises that businesses that adopt sustainable practices and successfully promote their green initiatives can attract environmentally conscious customers who are willing to pay a premium for greener options. In addition, green marketing encourages businesses to adopt sustainable practices that can lead to cost savings and improve efficiency, as well as build a positive brand image and enhance their reputation. Businesses label their sustainable products with recognised certifications and labels such as Energy Star, USDA Organic or Forest Stewardship Council to give consumers immediate credibility and assurance. These certifications serve as visual cues that communicate the product’s sustainable attributes and help consumers make an informed decision. They provide transparent product information on the product’s sustainability features, including the materials used, manufacturing processes and supply chain practices, to increase consumer confidence and use QR codes or dedicated web pages to provide detailed information that interested consumers can easily access. This professorial inaugural lecture series focuses on critical green marketing issues and is a comprehensive resource for marketers, managers, retailers, advertisers, academics and marketing students. The lecture series is also suitable as a teaching tool and for discussion in a variety of courses in different disciplines at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels around the world.
