ABSTRACT
Green Marketing has developed great importance in the modern market. People nowadays are concerned more about the impact of products on environment. Consumers and Manufactures are now focusing more on environmentally friendly products that are presumed to be green like organic goods, recyclable paper, consuming low-power electrical appliances, etc. The concept of green marketing has helped for re-marketing and packaging of existing products so that they can be reused. This concept has not only helped in re-using products but has also given opportunities to companies to co-brand their products and introduce new products which are eco-friendly. With the evolution of green marketing, the concept of ‘Green Transportation’ has also come into the picture because transportation and the pollution caused by it is one of the substantial sources of pollution in urban areas and is one of the greatest environmental hazards.
