Abstract

Environmental values play a primary role in pro-environmental behaviour: values affect people’s
beliefs, which then have influences on personal norms that lead to consumers’ pro-environmental behaviours.
So, if the market for environmentally sustainable products is to become mainstream, it is important to look at
what factors influence the consumer’s selection process. In current green marketing, branding is underutilised.
The affective use of branding in selling green products should be part of marketing strategies.
The effect of emotion on influencing decisions, attitude formation and memory retrieval, and the role
that emotions play in consumer response to brands, should be taken into account. Consumers would be more
likely to choose brands which they knew were manufactured by companies whose products and processes were
more environmentally friendly. Consumers also feel good about buying brands which are less damaging to the
environment. The cognitive-based marketing communication that is mostly used to sell environmentally friendly
products is useful only in some of the ways consumers form product attitudes, thus limiting their appeal.
