Sustainable lifestyles: A new frontier for business?

Deanna Dahlsad's insight:

From the article:


Interestingly, respondents do not believe this trend is driven by consumer demand. Company executives feel most consumers today are only moderately interested; respondents estimate that only 2 percent of consumers are “very interested” in sustainable lifestyles. However, those polled do believe that within five years, 98 percent of consumers will be moderately to very interested in sustainable lifestyles. This belief by company representatives polled is supported by recent consumer activism and studies that show an emerging generation of socially and environmentally conscious purchasers.
