Abstract

Although environmental issues influence all human activities, few academic disciplines have integrated green issues into their literature. This is especially true in marketing. As society becomes more concerned with the natural environment, businesses have begun to modify their behavior in an attempt to address society's "new" concerns. Some businesses ha ve been quick to accept concepts like environmental management systems and waste minimization, and have integrated environmental issues into all organizational activities. Some evidence of this is the development of journals such as "Business Strategy and the Environment" and "Greener Management International," which are specifically designed to disseminate research relating to business' environmental behavior. One business area where environmental issues have received a great deal of discussion in the popu lar and professional press is marketing. Terms like "Green Marketing" and "Environmental marketing" appear frequently in the popular press.

In Bangladesh, Green issues are new for all company because they did not have any practiced of it's before. The researcher will find out what is all about green marketing and implication problem of green marketing.
