About this book
In-depth, authoritative overview of sustainability issues and how sustainability is integrated into management and marketing theory and practices
Marketing and Sustainability equips readers in the fields of management and marketing with an in-depth understanding of sustainability issues and how sustainability is integrated into business. Examples from across the globe are included on topics such as how businesses use services, sharing practices, and sustainable business models in their operations to face increasing demands to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, limited resources, and increased global competition.
This book is concerned with consumer and business markets, considering marketing practices as part of business administration. Up-to-date and topical areas of research such as the sharing economy, are thoroughly discussed and illustrated with supporting models, figures, and vignettes.
The book is accompanied by a companion site for instructors and faculty, which includes PowerPoint slides and exam Q&A's. Videos introducing each chapter's content are also available via YouTube.
