The planet is plagued by environmental concerns. Studies have shown that the degree of environmental awareness among customers is rising, and people are ready to buy eco-friendly products despite their higher pricing. Businesses are embracing “green marketing” as a means of promoting a more environmentally friendly reputation. Green marketing gives businesses the opportunity to communicate their core beliefs as well as their contributions to the local community and the world at large. This article will help you understand what “green marketing” is and will provide you with green marketing examples from well-known brands. In green marketing, businesses focus on their brand, goods, or philanthropic initiatives by highlighting their environmental and sustainable practices. At its inception, it served as a medium for companies to communicate their environmentally friendly business practices while also showing how their products had evolved in response to customer demand for such improvements. Promoting ecologically friendly goods and practices is an important part of any company's marketing strategy, and green marketing is a great method to show the dedication a brand has toward saving the planet. While many businesses claim to devote a percentage of their profits to environmental causes, only a small number can make the claim that their whole business model revolves around environmental concerns. There are several advantages to green marketing, including: Taking social and environmental obligations very seriously. Making business decisions that are good for the environment. Taking a stand in a crowded marketplace that is becoming increasingly competitive. Increasing the trustworthiness of a brand. Providing long-term prospects for growth. Helping individuals make better decisions via education. Keeping costs down while increasing profits. Using less energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Enhancing the general public's well-being Developing closer relationships with the people you want to influence. 15 Green Marketing Examples To Inspire You Those who are new to green marketing may believe that only small niche brands can actually improve their practices sufficiently to be truly green businesses. But that's not the case. Sustainable practices have been embraced by a slew of well-known global corporations in recent times. Take a look at these fifteen real-world brand green marketing examples. Learn how 100+ brands on Shopify increased their AOV by 20% through cause-based marketing Patagonia contributes to climate change concerns and seeks to find more environmentally friendly ways to make their goods. It is also honest with buyers, stating that the jackets' shells are made of fossil fuels, which are not fully green. As long as the community can perceive the company's genuine interest in saving our world, this truth will have no effect on the brand's reputation. The Common Threads Recycling Program is one of the company's most effective environmental programs. Its purpose was to help customers get more use out of things they'd already bought. For the previous five years, Patagonia has maintained or improved on its “outstanding” rating as a certified B Corporation (151). According to the Fashion Transparency Index, which conducted an audit of the Ventura, California, company in 2020, it received a 60 percent approval rating (the average score is 23 percent).

Balinese performer and composer I Ketut Gede Asnawa joins us to discuss his work with Balinese gamelan music in Indonesia and the United States. We explore the varieties of gamelan music throughout Indonesia and how gamelan music is integrated throughout Balinese culture through the 5 sacred yadnya. Pak shares with us the central role that community plays in gamelan ensembles and the work that he has done to bring that same sense of community into his classroom at the University of Illinois. And we discuss the challenges of teaching a primarily aural music tradition within the context of a Western culture that relies heavily on sheet music for performance. I Ketut Gede Asnawa is a composer, performer, and scholar from Bali, Indonesia. He has taught at the government-sponsored secondary- and tertiary-level conservatories of Balinese music since 1980. His compositions have been featured at the Festival of Young Composers in Jakarta and the annual Bali Arts Festival. His importance as a cutting-edge composer and innovator in Balinese music was recognized in Grove Music Online. An accomplished gamelan musician, Asnawa has toured Europe, the US, and Asia. A demanding but charismatic teacher, he has taught gamelan groups at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (where he earned a Master's degree in Ethnomusicology), Université de Montréal, Eastman School of Music, University of Missouri Kansas City, Florida State University, Texas Women University, Richmond University, Illinois Wesleyan University, Gettysburg College, Miami University at Oxford, OH, as well as private gamelan groups Giri Kusuma in Woodstock, NY, Sekar Jaya, CA, Indonesian Performing Arts of Chicago, Chicago Balinese Gamelan, and the Netherlands. In 2017, he received the Dharma Kusuma Art Award and Gold Medal from the Governor of Bali in recognition of his life - long dedication and contribution to Bali's culture of arts, most notably in Gamelan music. Since Fall 2006, he has taught various styles of Balinese gamelan as a faculty member in the School of Music at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and most recently served as an artistic adviser for Chicago Balinese Gamelan.

Ontario will spend all of the $13.3 billion in pandemic funding it received from the federal government by the end of March, although that won’t change the record deficit it expects to rack up this year. The province has been criticized for being too slow to spend the one-time funding from Ottawa but Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy said Wednesday that the last $2.6 billion of that allotment would be used for a grant program for small business, and to support hospitals and long-term care homes.

"The basic idea and why we argue that its more carbon neutral to get our heat from wood rather than diesel, is the distinction between what's called short-cycle and long-cycle carbon. Wood is considered short-cycle carbon because trees are pulling CO2 out of the air. When you burn wood its functioning on a much shorter timescale in regards to circulating CO2. The time scale on which carbon gets stored in fossil fuels is thousands of years as opposed to a couple decades."

Rescheduled Presentation September is Hispanic Heritage month. We are so thrilled that Jesse is with us. . In 1982, Jesse Bermudez, and others, united to protest poor working conditions for Latino musicians in the North Philadelphia club scene. The musicians went on strike and succeeded in raising their nightly pay. Riding the wave of that success, Jesse and the other founders created La Asociación de Músicos Latino Americanos, to represent and advocate for Latin musicians and music in Philadelphia. La Asociación first offered music classes in 1984, and the music school was formally founded in 1986. Record numbers of students were served, and topnotch special events were created and hosted. In the 1990s through 2004, they continued to significantly raise the profile of Latin music and musicians in Philadelphia.. Mr. Bermudez continues to serve the Philadelphia Latino community as the co-presenter of Salsa Caliente. Since Fall 2010, Salsa Caliente goers have enjoyed non-stop flight service from the fringes of Old City to the heart of Old San Juan alongside the hottest large music ensembles from the region. Mr Bermudez is a Grammy-nominated producer/radio personality, arts education champion, and music curator. He is known for his instrumental role in Papo Vasquez’s 2008 Album, “Marooned/Aislado“, which garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Latin Jazz Album.
