		<description><![CDATA[As the question states I wanted to find Canadian companies or products that are responsible for Greenwashing, or in other words, those that allege to be a &#8216;green&#8217; company but make such claims just to improve their standing with consumers and consequently increase their profit. Conversely I was also wondering if anyone could bring forth Canadian companies that do make legitimate claims of changing to become more environmentally friendly. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To market your company is to sell your innovations to the world. To showcase a company&#8217;s capability and to gather as much exposure to build a name that resounds in the ear of anyone who hears it. A good name develops a good company. Expansion takes one small step at a time. It works the same with a renewable energy company as well. Renewable energy marketing has to be more aggressive than normal marketing strategies for many reasons. Here&#8217;s four to show you: First, renewable energy marketing adds awareness to the people that they have more than one energy options. To switch from traditional energy producers to something that is independent, not to mention compact as a source of energy. Many consumers nowadays are open to explore other possibilities of cutting down costs of electricity without compromising various home activities. The increasing demand to produce energy has given various renewable energy company opportunities to meet demands of the citizens and by providing continuous and uninterrupted flow of electricity on their homes even on a nationwide black out. The second would be that renewable energy marketing gives the company a chance to be steward of good will. Marketing involves communication between consumer and company. What do the consumers want? How much are they willing to spend? How would it help the environment? These are essential questions that should be listened to as a company. The earth is growing weaker and weaker with each decade passing by. The overflowing demands to harvest its natural resources exhaust the land to the point that it is useless for the next generation. As a steward of good will, the advocacy is to promote a sustainable future. Renewable energy marketing establishes the renewable energy company character to the people and having a name that would be distinguished among other. Third, Renewable energy marketing guides prospective consumers to the right direction. Active marketing entice both target market and possible target market. Renewable energy company exposure builds trust and confidence both within and outside the company. Most people have no idea what renewable energy means or how it works. To educate the masses better would entice prospective consumers to try out the latest innovation on renewable energy. It would be best if your renewable energy company would take the giant leap towards that awareness. Fourth, marketing attracts investors! It is not impossible that along side marketing your company&#8217;s capability and attracting possible market lure out potential investors. Investing takes double the time of thinking and good fore sight to the side of the investor. With a resounding name to the ears, it would be much easier to attract investors and help the company expand to its maximum potential. These are just four reasons on why renewable energy marketing is essential to a renewable energy company. Unlike traditional established energy companies, renewable energy is optional and therefore deemed as un-necessary by others. It is important to show the masses that renewable energy is the future of energy consumption. &#13; Shirlyn Dee is a co-owner of Keen Partnerships, a pioneer renewable energy marketing company. Keen Partnerships acknowledge the fact that the renewable energy company startups need due exposure, and has the resources and manpower to give quality Internet marketing services for renewable energy players. She has successfully deployed sites, and has been in the &#8220;Internet Marketing&#8221; industry for 4 years now. Now her expertise is mostly focused in deploying sites for Keen Partnerships clients, whose businesses are often in the renewability and sustainability field.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Anything that is consumable is marketable. Those who are on top of the biz know how to sell all sorts of items and renewable energy is not an exception. To boost sales of these renewable energy companies, they really have to sell it. It is not enough to say that renewable energy can sustain human life for future generation. Not all are conscious of the future and what awaits the generations to come. Going green really should sell everything they got! 1. Better education is better profit The world&#8217;s condition is already at its alerting stage. More and more people are seeking alternative energy providers to sustain their daily living. Renewable energy marketing is a perfect opportunity to increase the level of awareness of the people and make use of the chance to permeate the consumer&#8217;s will to purchase. Since renewable energy does not come cheap consumer are doubtful in purchasing such equipments. It is timely and tiring to constantly promote renewable energy and at the same time address environmental issues that can be solved with the use of renewable energy. But be rest assured that efforts are not left in vain. 2. Positive renewable energy marketing is additional cookie points No matter how much people doubt products, always remember that it is the same for almost every product in the market. A good company would like to sell their product in accordance to how they would like the product is perceived by the market. However, a better company would inform the consumers of how they could benefit from clean renewable energy. 3. Proper marketing is favorable to the recommendation of experts Experts are the best back-up for a renewable energy company. People would listen better to experts using renewable energy rather than celebrities endorsing it without even vouching in for what they say. Expert opinions matter, not only in marketing but in improving quality of renewable energy products simultaneously with sales. 4. Total customer satisfaction should be met with a smileTo meet up with the expectations of consumers is practically what a renewable energy company should be focusing on. It must continuously reinvent itself so that it would constantly offer something fresh to the public. It would build up company character and confidence in the long run. To live up to expectations and to surpass it as a main objective would build a stronger renewable energy company. 5. Renewable energy marketing can win the heart of the government The government is one of the biggest consumers in the country to win the favor of the government means better investment, more jobs and of course a wider horizon for the company. To end this, it is better to stay true to what a renewable energy company advocate, a better world. It is more than enough to say that the usage of renewable energy will sustain future generation.

		<description><![CDATA[Thousands of organizations and businesses are going the extra mile and spending the extra dollar to buy utility-scale energy from renewable resources. So much so that the United States E.P.A. (Environmental Protection Agency) compiles a quarterly list of the top green power companies from their Green Power Partnership program which came out in July 2008. Some businesses take diminutive steps towards a green campaign, but these companies are proving their allegiance to a greener environment by voluntarily spending millions of dollars on clean energy. Intel purchased 1.3 billion kilowatt hours of electricity in January 2008. This compensates for 47 percent of the companies overall energy use.PepsiCo purchased 1.1 billion kilowatt hours of electricity in 2007, the equivalent of powering 90,000 homes for an entire year. This accounts for 100 percent of their annual energy use. PepsiCo was named Green Power Partner of the Year in 2007 by the E.P.A.U.S. Air Force has already purchasd 9 million kilowatt hours of electricity this year as of July 2008. They have invested in a number of biogas, biomass, geothermal, solar and wind energy providers.Wells Fargo has purchased 5.5 million kilowatt hours of electricity from wind energy providers thus far in 2008. They are also a Green Power Partner of the Year in 2007. More than green energy, Wells Fargo has made a number of other commitments to their green campaign including LEED certifying their buildings and offering online account statements.Whole Foods Market, the past two years has purchased enough green energy to compensate for 100 percent of their energy use, totalling to over 5 million kilowatt hours annually. The company is also investing in multiple other efforts to reduce their carbon footprint on the environment. Other organizations ranking high on the E.P.A.&#8217;s list are Starbucks, Johnson &#38; Johnson and the University of Pennsylvania. &#13; Nick Tart is the editor of four main sites for Worldwide Marketing Solutions.
