The steps involve an analysis of socio-environmental priorities to complement conventional consumer research; an integration of social, ethical and environmental values into marketing strategy development; a new consumer-oriented sustainability marketing mix to replace the outmoded and producer-oriented '4Ps'; and finally an analysis of how marketing can go beyond responding to social change to contribute to a transformation to a more sustainable society. Without taking such steps, marketing will continue to drive global crises linked to climate change, poverty, food shortages, oil depletion and species extinction, instead of helping to tackle them"-- Provided by publisher. 0aBusinessxResearchxMethodology aSekaran, Umaeauthor1 iPrint version:tResearch methods for businessbNinth edition.dHoboken, NJ : Wiley, 2025z9781394288946w(DLC) 2025010738
