Part 1: The Role of ‘Greener Marketing’ in Evolving Marketing and Driving Societal Change - John Grant, Author and the definitive ‘green marketing guy’.

Published on: 3rd June, 2021

In this episode we’re joined by John Grant, Author and truly, the definitive ‘green marketing guy’. Having recently read John’s latest book, ‘Greener Marketing’ - we discuss a range of topics about what ‘greener marketing’ really looks like today. John’s passion for driving an environmental and green agenda stems from the start of his career in the 90’s. We discuss some of the many projects he’s embarked upon and the role of being a marketer in ‘green land’ rather than a ‘green’ champion in marketing land. He shares his formula around green-washing, and making green ‘normal’ - the reality of driving behavioural change and the role of consumer behaviour. It’s packed with practical gems for marketers - like getting out of the ‘ivory tower’ to gain real world perspective - and much more. This episode has been split into Part 1 and Part 2 - because there was just so much to talk about, so many insights… we didn’t want to lose a drop of John’s experience and inspirational wisdom in the editing suite. Enjoy Part 1 and Part 2.
