Sustainability needs marketing

…understand that we humans make complex choices based on very human impulses. These impulses include the desire to show our status, to have a life of pleasure, to care for our families or stay connected to our friends.

Environmental experts need to now hold hands with those very people who started the consumer revolution; the people that know consumers inside out and back to front — marketers, social psychologists, advertisers, storytellers and branding experts.
