Abstract

Ecological degradation and environmental resource constraints pose a threat to human welfare. Human behaviour has the potential to contribute towards solutions for environmental challenges through mindful consumption. Generativity can play an important role in shaping environmentally responsible human behaviour. Green marketing, through introduction of sustainability paradigm in marketing mix, can facilitate the consumption of more sustainable products and services.
