Abstract
Environmental marketing or green marketing or ecological marketing placed emphasis on sustainability of marketing activities of a firm and sustainable consumption of a consumer so that these create either a positive impact or lessen the negative impact on the environment. However, adopting green marketing is not easy as it involves a whole gamut of activities ranging from developing innovative or renovating existing products as per environment’s ecological standards, changes to the production process, a modified form of advertising as well as packaging changes. Consequently , manufacturers as well as marketers faces various barriers or impediments while adopting green marketing and selection of green media for advertising . This paper aims to identify various impediments or barriers towards the adoption of green marketing in Indian context and to measure the inter-relationships amongst the identified factors using Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) technique.
