The race to be “green” is heating up as never before. It is impossible to watch television or read the news headlines without seeing something related to green products and marketing. In their annual National Technology Readiness Survey, Rockbridge conducted a “green” segmentation uncovering segments that are demographically unique and targetable.
The race to be “green” is heating up as never before. While the green “movement” has been around in one form or another for more than a century (think back to 1916 when the National Parks Service was established), the rising chorus of green initiatives, legislation, and marketing is at a fever pitch. It is impossible to watch television or read the news headlines without seeing something related to green products and marketing. From cars to light bulbs, green is pervading our society.

In this survey, Rockbridge conducted a “green” segmentation uncovering segments that are demographically unique and targetable. Among the findings of this study are the following:
To anyone who would like to dismiss the current state of the green movement as a fad that comes and goes, the Green Tech segments are proof the movement is here for the long haul. And any company that wishes to capitalize on this market segment needs to pay attention to what this group of consumers has to say.
