Going Green shows you how to create a corporate communication program that makes the public aware of green achievements - and explains how "going green" is related to customer loyalty and higher profits.

You'll also learn how to build a record of successful environmental communication and policy; how to communicate with activists (including dealing with legal issues); how to implement a program through successful (and unsuccessful) corporate stories; how companies are affected by green trends and green crimes; specific executive skills for continuous improvement including listening, public speaking, media relations, government relations, communicating about risk, communicating in a crisis, and more; and how to build a record of successful environmental communication and policy.

Bruce Harrison describes new and effective steps to tackling the challenges from pressure groups, politicians, and the news media. He identifies major trends that will make environmental public relations a mandate for business executives no matter what the economic, political, or global conflict situation.
