Yes, the little things can make a big difference!

Yes, the little things can make a big difference!  That is what I always tell people when they say it is so hard to be "green". I ask them if they recycle, and they say it is so hard.... so I tell them do they drop paper off at school and they say yes, so I acknowledge them and say "see, you HAVE made a difference" and then I add something like, have you changed your light bulbs. It is so expensive (same cry) and I say to them, well, don't do it all at once, change 2 a month. They last for years so you wont have to replace those ones again for a looooong time. That way you can save and make a difference..... turn down your geyser, get tap inserts that use less hot water and save energy that way, put in a loo plunger lever that allows you to flush only what you need and not the whole lot. Small inexpensive ways to make a difference. And I have not had one person yet who has not done it.

Same application with what I am doing, make it presentable, give the viewer a taste of what that company does (product or service) and contact details immediately with no extra clicks because time spent on the computer is non-products and uses energy.  I use that airline ad example ...... I only vant to hear von click! scenario. The facebook and twitter connections are just a little way that I can make a difference to people finding what they are looking for and providing my client with more exposure.

10 Steps in Building a Wind Farm

SAAEA: 10 Steps in Building a Wind Farm

Is Green the New Common Sense?

In the last couple months, I’ve noted some products, media and pronouncements that for me signal a, perhaps permanent, turn in corporate and government affairs towards green. I am wondering if this means that green is (part of) a new common sense for most people and markets not just one of a number of flavors, a personal choice or (small) market segment.

One encounter for me was in the cereal aisle at the local Safeway, the national chain of supermarkets that does not carry as many “specialty” product lines as Whole Foods or supermarkets with a specific ethnic identity. Now I don’t usually get my cereal at Safeway, so this was, relatively speaking, terra incognita. In any case, on this trip, among the offerings of (usually way too sugary) cereals I saw the icons of my childhood transformed!! Yes…transformed!! Kellogg’s Rice Krispies and Raisin Bran were present in their familiar blue and purple boxes with a difference…these iconic boxes had a large green banner declaring them to be “Kellogg’s Organic”. I noted that nearby there was a stock of regular Kellogg’s cereal including regular non-organic Rice Krispies and Raisin Bran. I feel though that I had just personally witnessed a sea-change in American marketing.

People forget thatKellogg’s and breakfast cereal in general actually started as part of late 19th century health food movement. So it there is something of a fit between Kelloggs launch of Kelloggs Organics last year and its corporate heritage. On the other hand, the timing may be a sign of our current times, in that organic has been around for a couple decades already. Safeway itself had rolled out its own house-brand organic cereal line last year. Some of the trend into organics has to do with the specifics of the food business; the success and expansion of Whole Foods as well as the search for slightly better profit margins than one usually finds in the grocery sector. There may be something more at work.

As Raisin Bran used to be my favorite, I went out a bought a box of Organic Raisin Bran to “test”. It was good and as it turns out, less sweet than the conventional variety. Still a little too sweet for my current tastes but apparently trying to avoid the excesses of one of the other negatives of the American food industry, excessive use of sweeteners.

Another sign of the greening of major American manufacturers and retailers could be found on TV a month back. In, perhaps its Earth Day (in America its in late April) ad campaign, Walmart touted its organic cotton pajamas for women, a change up from the usual price-cut message of its consumer ads. In a previous post, I applauded, despite concerns about Walmart’s potential to dilute the standard, Walmart’s initiative in the area of organic food. The rapid advance into organic clothing was surprising to me in that organic cotton is still uncommon in almost all major clothing lines in the US, so it seems that Walmart has now leapfrogged some of the more expensive clothing manufacturers. In my mind, organic clothing, more than food, still was in the “premium” category.

As it turns out, Walmart, according to its website is now the largest purchaser of organic cotton in the world. As conventional cotton is a major polluter, Walmart’s leadership in this area is a boon to the environment and a challenge to its more upscale competitors. While organic cotton is fairly common now in baby clothing, Walmart’s influence may help spur the general clothing industry and fiber growers to go organic.

There are many other indications of a changed climate with regard to sustainability. Media campaigns require less investment than new product lines and there are ample examples of “green” in the media. My cable provider, Comcast, has been advertising in its regular cable channels a new line of free animated videos on its on-demand feed channel, Channel 1, called “The Unsustainables”. Produced bySustainlane, an online interactive green business directory, the 4 minute videos are fun and portray a group of people “stumbling” into the future. What is different about this video series when compared with typical public service announcements is that the message is hidden in a (usually) funny story or character quirk. The Unsustainables sometimes “get it right” and sometimes they don’t but we are encouraged to laugh along with them. The positive public service information is sometimes spoken by a character who is casting aspersions on that very information for all-too-human reasons.

I’m encouraged by the style and creativity that goes into these animated videos and the light touch. Sometimes, though, the message may get lost in the effort to be too subtle and non-judgmental. Nevertheless, if the “Unsustainables” get enough shots at communicating the message, I’m quite sure some of it can get through.

Finally, one of the least “environmental” of contemporary political figures in the US, George W. Bush has started to allow for the reality of climate change in his public pronouncements. We hadthe “addicted to oil” speech last year but now it seems like the last holdouts are being pulled along in some of their public pronouncements. Current differences with the G8 may cloud this picture of a universal consensus…

So do you think that green and sustainability are now an inevitability for marketers and public figures? If you get a chance, let us know what it looks like from your standpoint, market area, etc.

Green Marketing and Green Advertising

Green marketing is not just green advertising. Nor is it, for the cynical, “greenwashing”, at least in its principled forms. Green marketing is, in part, about using the persuasive and communicative media we have available to us to help people make more sustainable choices and help organizations and companies understand what the market needs are for their goods and services. Green marketing can involve product development and internal re-organization to meet the needs for sustainable products and sustainable ways of doing business.

As concerns about our environment and fuel prices grow, we have seen a growing crop of green advertising initiatives. Notable in green advertising currently are ads for both devices and organizations that are emphasizing either actual products or future intentions to introduce green products. There is as well an increase in public service announcements that advertise the concern of the networks, the Ad Council, and public entities about the environment and global warming.

One piece of green advertising is the now well-known spot with Kermit the Frog advertising the Ford Escape Hybrid. The actual greener characteristics of the product are implied in the ad, though the word “hybrid” communicates greater efficiency and lower emissions. The Escape Hybrid does in fact deliver lower emissions and MPG compared to other SUVs in its class. In terms then of the ad content, we are then amused by the play on the familiar“It’s not Easy being Green” that the Escape makes it easy to be green.

BP, one of the more forward-looking of the major oil companies, has been leading the US market by provoking questions in a variety of media including the web about viewers/users/readers “carbon footprint”, a term that is probably more familiar in countries where the Kyoto protocol has been ratified. Additional ads in BP’s current arsenal interview the public about where they think an oil/energy company should be heading. While BP owns and markets solar panels through Home Depot and solar installers, its main business is still in the extraction of petroleum, so this campaign reflects something of the reality of the company as it switches gears. No concrete greener products are offered but at the same time the campaign informs the public about the direction of where BP is moving relative to other oil companies.

Tesla Motors has in a way the opposite, higher quality problem of having ONLY a greener product to offer the market. Tesla is a California-based start-up that is building electric vehicles for the high-end and eventually the mass market. As Tesla’s new $85K-100K roadster will be one of the greenest production vehicles out there by far, transparency on their content-rich website yields a great deal of positive green information about their product and company. Particularly notable are Tesla chairman Elon Musk’s blog which lets us in on the Tesla “secret”and Tesla founders, Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning’s white paper. The rich detail on the site only adds to the attraction of the product that will start delivery sometime next year.

If Tesla is the model for a company with only greener products, what about a company with a wide range of holdings that are not necessarily green? General Electric, the company that Thomas Edison founded is one of the biggest companies in the world and is also a classic and highly successful conglomerate with properties in heavy industry, in media content (NBC Universal), in household appliances, in finance and in healthcare technology. While GE as any large 20th century industrial company has had its problems with emissions and waste disposal, General Electric’s technological and energy base is by luck AND design relatively cleaner than traditional large automobile companies or oil companies.

In addition to its technology base and expertise with electricity which has turned out to be an efficient and greener energy carrier, GE has the advantage of being one of the top producers of some of the key technologies (in particular wind turbines and to a lesser extent diesel hybrid locomotives) needed for our advance to a more sustainable economy. As we move away from petroleum use, GE will continue to benefit from its dominant market position in electricity generation equipment of all types.

GE’s Ecomagination initiative, a complex plan that included marketing and strategic policy decisions, was in part conceived by the GreenOrder sustainable business consulting firm. Ecomagination is both a series of advertisements for GE products and GE as a brand and a series of company wide initiatives to improve the company’s product line and environmental footprint. GE has committed to cut greenhouse gas emission intensity by 30% by 2008 andabsolute greenhouse emissions by 1% worldwide by 2012 which would otherwise have grown substantially from 2004 levels.

Ecomagination advertising is just the tip of the iceberg. Not only do we have dancing elephants(not my favorite ad) and sooty locomotives (particularly well written and funny) in current TV ads but GE has integrated its efforts to create more sustainable technologies and has a VP of Ecomagination to coordinate the efforts. GE has also upped R&D spending on sustainable technologies. Jeffrey Immelt, the CEO is personally involved as well in the Ecomagination program.

While GE is uniquely positioned to play a major role in a sustainable economy, it takes the initiative through its Ecomagination campaign and re-organization to capitalize more fully on its unique assets and market niche. Can other companies with a diversity of assets do the same? Of course, but it will take more initiative. time, and R&D for some of the major industrial combines and players to be able to orient their businesses in the direction that GE has taken.

What have we learned? For one, the major supports to a successful green marketing initiative are, of course, greener products and research programs. Whether these products have emerged through careful market research or through the inherent unfolding of a company’s original mission and R&D program becomes irrelevant when it is time to show the market the benefits. Green advertising can help to broadcast intentions and educate the public even when a greener product line is years away or a small fraction of the offerings of a company. Finally, there is no substitute for the commitment of corporate leaders to working on issues of sustainability on an ongoing basis no matter what the level of public information nor the prospect for immediate payoff or damage control.

Can we in South Africa avoid the same problems found in Aus.

Can we in South Africa avoid the same problems found in Aus.

I always believe it is best to examine what is happening internationally, especially in countries that are years ahead of us in this solar thermal sector (basically everybody). This may help us predict what trends may slowly develop here in South Africa.

Solarthermalworld wanted to investigate why the Australian Government decided to discontinue its Solar Water Heater Rebate Programme and conducted an interview with Stephen Cranch, Sales and Marketing Manager of Solahart Industries Pty Ltd Australia.

Cranch provided a short overview of the current market and support scheme situation. Since 2005, the solar water heater expert has been part of the Solahart Team, an Australian flat plate collector and tank manufacturer. Before that, he had been General Marketing Manager at Heatcraft Australia, a major supplier for the refrigeration and air-conditioning sector.

Solarthermalworld: We have recently reported that the Federal Solar Water Heater (SWH) Rebate has been discontinued. What caused this abrupt end?

Cranch: There has been a lot of market turmoil here. Around September last year, the heat pump rebate was reduced to AUD 1,000, because people were installing for free and the market was massively overheated. As a result, REC prices plummeted, which made solar less attractive and the demand started to drop off. The peak for the SWH market was around June till November. In January, the New South Wales rebate was reduced from up to AUD 1,200 to AUD 300.

At the same time, the insulation program had been plagued with some real problems. And therefore, the Federal Government decided to suspend the program on 19 February 2010 and to reintroduce it in June this year. However, for SWHs, which as you know were part of the programme, a new scheme was immediately launched called the Renewable Energy Bonus Scheme and the rebate amount reduced from AUD 1,600 to AUD 1,000, effective from 20 February 2010.

Solarthermalworld: In 2009, market volume almost doubled and reached its peak around June/July 2009. Was the market volume pushed by the Federal Solar Water Heater Rebate?

Cranch: In February 2009, the Federal Government increased the national solar hot water rebate from AUD 1,000 to AUD 1,600 and removed the requirement for means testing, which was previously only available to householders earning a combined income of AUD 100,000 or less. This was bundled up with free home insulation as part of the federal government stimulus package in the midst of the global financial crisis.

Solarthermalworld: Insulation and solar water heaters are not usually combined in one and the same incentive programme. How did that work?

Cranch: You could only claim the SWH rebate when replacing an electric water heater and proving that you had not had free insulation installed. For instance, householders could have free insulation up to AUD 1,600 or the AUD 1,600

SHW rebate. Insulation was provided free to householders without money changing hands, whereas with SWHs, the householder still had to pay the up-front cost and wait 2 to 3 months for the rebate to come back after sending the paperwork in.

This was on top of the Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), which are linked to the 20 % renewable energy target by 2020. 1 REC is 1

MW of electricity generated or displaced over a 10-year period. The value of each REC is determined by market factors, for instance: the current value around 33 AUD/ REC, multiplied by the number of RECs per system – lets say 30 – is AUD 990. Additionally, some other state rebates where available, such as the New South Wales rebate, which was up to AUD 1,200. Those rebates and RECs are available for heat pumps and solar water heaters.

Solarthermalworld: How would you assess the current state of the SWH market?

Cranch: Now, it’s significantly down from the numbers in 2009. In summary, the market is a lot tougher now than 12 months ago. It peaked at around 200,000 SWH systems, including a large number of heat pumps, but has come back significantly from these numbers.The interview was conducted by communication specialist Hanna Schober based in South Africa.

French City Uses Sidewalks to Generate Power

City officials have announced that they’ll be installing power-generating tiles in the sidewalks in the city center for two weeks as a test run of using people power to create electricity.
The move is one of the latest in attempts by municipalities and companies to turn the basic elements of daily life into energy-generating activities, from revolving doors to workout equipment.
From a report in the GuardianAs part of wider efforts to put France’s south-western technology capital at the forefront of green wizardry, city authorities are testing out a scheme to generate electricity for street lights through the stamping feet of passers-by.
Designers say the section of eight custom-made modules placed in the city centre for a two-week trial period can produce between 50 and 60 watts of electricity to power a nearby street lamp.
It is the first time the modules — unveiled to the world by Dutch company Sustainable Dance Club (SDC) for use in nightclubs — have been tested on the street. For Alexandre Marciel, the city’s deputy mayor in charge of sustainable development, the new function is potentially ground-breaking.
The modules work by installing a generator that draws energy when compressed, as seen below in an image from Sustainable Dance Club.
The LEDs are optional for city use, though they might provide added incentive for pedestrians to stroll around the city center in Toulouse.
GreenBiz first reported on the energy-generating dance floor back in 2008, along side the news about a revolving door that creates electricity with each spin.
SDC’s power-generating dance floor tiles are also in use in Surya Club4Climate in London and at Club WATT in Rotterdam.
