Now marketers utilize the resources efficiently without waste as well as to achieve the organization’s objectives. Green marketing should not neglect the economic aspect of marketing. Marketers and consumers need to understand the implications of green marketing. This is an opportunity to enhance the product's performance and strengthen the customer's loyalty and command a higher price. Green marketing is still in its infancy and a lot of research is to be done on green marketing to fully explore its potential. There is growing interest among the manufacturers and consumers all over the world regarding protection of environment through green products.
