1. Carbon Labeling Practice: From the Perspective of Stakeholder’s Interaction
2021 by Rui Zhao, Yong Geng



Carbon Labeling Practice: From the Perspective of Stakeholder’s Interaction dives headfirst into the murky, slightly bureaucratic but utterly fascinating world of carbon labeling—a realm where stickers on products don’t just tell you what’s inside but also hint at whether buying them is helping the planet or hastening its demise. Rui Zhao and Yong Geng unravel the complex tango between stakeholders—consumers, producers, policymakers and a few folks who probably just wandered in by accident—who all have wildly different ideas about what those labels should mean. This book examines the triumphs, stumbles and occasional faceplants of carbon labeling initiatives, offering sharp insights into how they might actually promote low-carbon living without making your shopping trip feel like an existential crisis. Perfect for students, researchers, policymakers and anyone who’s ever wondered if their choice of yogurt could save the planet, this is your backstage pass to the intricate dance of sustainability stickers.

4. Sustainable Enterprise: A Macromarketing Approach
2012 by Mark Peterson



Sustainable Enterprise: A Macromarketing Approach is the kind of book that takes the classic marketing playbook—the trusty "four Ps"—and gleefully tosses it out the window, opting instead for a grand, interconnected vision of markets, marketing and society that might actually make sense for a planet in crisis. Mark Peterson invites readers to think big—really big—about how marketing influences everything from global trade to the temperature of the Arctic. With a mixture of sharp research and eyebrow-raising corporate tales, the book dares to ask questions like: Can companies make a profit and save the world? What exactly makes markets change their baffling minds? And why is sustainability the ultimate cheat code for navigating today’s global chaos? Whether you’re a student, a marketer, or just someone who’s been side-eyeing capitalism, this book shows how businesses can thrive by balancing profits, stakeholders and the planet in a way that’s both ambitious and refreshingly not absurd. It’s macromarketing with a conscience—and maybe even a little hope.
