Abstract
Green marketing refers to the promotion and development of products and services that are environmentally friendly and sustainable. With increasing environmental concerns such as climate change, pollution, and resource depletion, businesses are adopting green marketing strategies to reduce their ecological impact while meeting consumer demand for eco-friendly products. This concept includes activities such as sustainable product design, eco-friendly packaging, energy-efficient production, and responsible advertising that highlights environmental benefits. Green marketing not only helps protect the environment but also enhances corporate image, builds customer trust, and creates competitive advantages in the market. However, challenges such as higher production costs, consumer skepticism, and the risk of greenwashing may limit its effectiveness. Therefore, organizations must implement genuine and transparent environmental practices to ensure long-term sustainability. Overall, green marketing plays a crucial role in promoting sustainable consumption and encouraging businesses to contribute to environmental protection while achieving economic growth.
