About “The New Rules of Green Marketing”
Many of the ideas in this green paper were gleaned from Jacquie Ottman’s new book, The New Rules of Green Marketing: Strategies, Tools and Inspiration for Sustainable Branding
(Berrett-Koehler, 2011), 256 pp.
Ms. Ottman’s fourth book on the subject of green marketing,
The New Rules of Green Marketing, is being hailed as “the new green marketing bible”, “the be all and the end all of green marketing”, and a “must read for all marketers”.
Drawing on the latest poll data and incorporating lessons learned from Ottman’s forward-leaning clients, it demonstrates how to: spur innovation through a proactive approach to sustainability, design products to be greener throughout their life cycle, and communicate credibly and transparently.
It was recently named by Cambridge University as one of the top 40 Sustainability Books of 2010 and as a top green “e” book by EcoLibris. It is available at bookstores and at online booksellers. More information is available at http://www. greenmarketing.com/our-book About J. Ottman Consulting
