Can Marketing Save the Planet?

canmarketingsavetheplanet

Can Marketing Save the Planet? It’s a big question, and one our podcast sets out to explore with marketers, senior leaders, CMOs and sustainability consultants and experts. Our purpose is to drive education, share best practice, inspire and empower listeners to ask questions and importantly… start taking action. Sitting at the heart of brand, communications, stakeholders and product development, marketers have a significant role to play when it comes to promoting and driving sustainability. As marketers and business leaders developing and marketing products and services, we need to recognise that we’re part of the problem. In an age of growing authenticity and consumer demands for more transparency, it is more important than ever for brands to communicate their responsible and sustainable practices, to stand up for causes they’re passionate about and importantly, follow through on the promises they may. In our view, there’s no one better placed to effect change, align with and influence customers and drive hope for a better, more sustainable future, than an 'educated and aware', responsible marketer.

    Episode 109: ‘Navigating the role of a Responsible CMO’ - 3-Part Mini Series’, Part 2 - Gerald Breatnach

    The power of small steps – “I would say... keep pushing on to be a force for good as a marketer.” In this episode, the second in our “CMO mini-series” we go on a bit of dive deep with Gerald Breatnach, a seasoned insights professional with a passion for sustainability - which led him to complete a Masters in Sustainability Leadership at the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership. We’ve wanted to catch up with Gerald ever since he joined us at our COM2 (Conference of the Marketer) event to share findings from his work and dissertation around the role of the CMO and sustainability. Gerald begins by acknowledging the stark gap between sustainability theory and marketing practice. Whilst it’s true that many CMOs feel the pressure of the climate crisis, they are often constrained by short-term commercial targets – on the commercial reality he explains, “it comes back to the fact that businesses are not charities. Ultimately, you miss your profit number, your share price gets hammered, your CEO gets fired. That's still the brutal reality of it.". However as Gerald’s research reveals, the leaders making real progress are those operating within a purpose-driven corporate culture, integrating sustainability into the core of their marketing strategy, and beginning to tackle complex systemic challenges. We explore the tensions and trade-offs for CMOs, an area that keeps coming up, however, the tremendous opportunities facing today's marketing leaders far outweighs the tensions over the long term and whilst we acknowledge these, Gerald, like us remains optimistic about marketing's critical role in shaping a better future, as he puts it, "Marketers do have critical skills that are going to be needed in spades." This conversation is all about the practical human challenges and opportunities that come with embedding purpose into the core of an organisation and thinking in systems. Tune in as we talk to Gerald about… The single biggest factor enabling CMOs to drive change is a purpose-driven CEO and board who establish environmental and social goals alongside commercial ones, allowing for longer-term strategic thinking. The need to integrate not separate sustainability into the core marketing strategy and metrics. How successful CMOs treat sustainability as a functional pillar, not an optional add-on. The need to embrace systems thinking: Marketers are hitting understanding and influencing the complex systems we operate within, from supply chains to consumer habits. Building internal bridges with marketing working closely with sustainability teams. For more information about Gerald , tune in via LinkedIn.

    Episode 108: ‘Navigating the role of a Responsible CMO’ - 3-Part Mini Series’, Part 1 - Nick Lembo, Head of Marketing, Isometric

    “When it comes to climate – a brand cannot effectively power growth if it has an albatross around its neck, managing reputational risk is a huge part of a CMO's job today.” In this episode of Can Marketing Save the Planet? we kick off our “CMO mini-series” and catch up with Nick Lembo, Head of Marketing at Isometric, a carbon registry on a mission to reveal trust in carbon markets. Nick provides an expert breakdown of the carbon removal market he’s involved in, explaining how organisations can, and are, purchasing scientifically verified credits to offset their unavoidable emissions. We discuss a whole host of areas with Nick, focusing in at times on the role of CMOs and the tensions between ambitious growth targets and authentic, defensible sustainability commitments. From brand and growth, which we know are intrinsically linked, to managing reputational risk, these are a core function of marketing leadership, which as environmental and societal challenges grow, become ever more complex. Nick offers pragmatic advice on building internal partnerships, finding your stories, and communicating progress without falling into the traps of greenwashing. We discuss the situation many have watched unfold this year, with organisations seemingly pulling back from sustainability commitments or at least, pulling back from communicating them. From Nick’s perspective he reveals, "The reality that we're seeing on the ground is that organisations are absolutely still committed to climate goals and still making progress, most companies, when you actually dig a layer deeper, still have really aggressive emissions reductions and climate goals." When it comes to communicating what you are doing, Nick explains, “the reputational risk of not meeting your sustainability claims for your stakeholders is really real and can be a real drag on your growth, I think managing that is a huge part of a CMO’s role today, if they don’t want to dilute their brand.” This episode, along with the others in this mini-series provide food for thought for CMOs and senior marketer. So… Tune in as we talk to Nick about. The reality vs. the headlines – what are organisations doing. Credible carbon removal - the difference between legacy carbon credits and new, scientifically rigorous carbon removal, and why this matters for making defensible marketing claims. Why sustainability is not a trade-off but a critical force multiplier for your brand and a key lever for mitigating reputational risk. How CMOs can partner with sustainability officers as the internal experts, and learn to tell compelling, human stories backed by data. The need for CMOs to understand their organisational (sustainability) commitments, stepping forward to do the work and, communicating the small wins on the road to progress.

    Episode 107: Navigating the Complexity of Sustainability Focused Sponsorship with Kerry McDonald, CEO - Orchard

    In our final episode of Can Marketing Save the Planet? before we take a break for the summer, we sit down with Kerry McDonald, CEO of Orchard to explore the intersection of marketing, sustainability, and sponsorship. We delve into the complexities of sustainability focused sponsorships, where the line between meaningful partnerships and greenwashing has been increasingly scrutinised. Kerry talks about why sponsorship when rooted in shared values rather than transactions, can outperform traditional advertising in driving engagement. He explains, "done well, sponsorship is one of the most powerful engagement tools, it lets brands speak to their audience through shared passions." We discuss the challenges, from the financial inequities which can hold smaller, lesser known or challenger brands back, to the backlash faced by organisations if things don’t quite marry up and values are at odds with each other. We talk about why the system needs to change to reward courage and authenticity over commerciality to enable purpose-driven brands to compete with large corporations. Without incentives for ethical sponsors, even the most well-intentioned organisations face tough trade-offs between funding their mission and upholding their values. We explore the power of authenticity, where Kerry argues that brands must own their imperfections and be transparent in the communication of their progress in order to build trust in an era of conscious consumers and social media scrutiny. "Authenticity is key, you've got to do it for the right reasons and accept that along the way you're not going to be perfect."  Whether you’re a Marketer, activist, or simply curious about the ethics of brand partnerships, this episode offers a nuanced take on sponsorship’s role as part of a more sustainable future. Tune in as we talk to Kerry about: Sponsorship vs. traditional advertising - why shared passions create unparalleled engagement Navigating risks - the critical role of authenticity in volatile ESG landscapes, such as greenwashing Ethical sponsorship dilemmas - when financial pressures could mean a clash with values Playing the long game - why strategic, multi-year partnerships outperform tactical deals Creative solutions for challenger brands - how under-resourced organisations can amplify impact  For more information about Orchard - Link here: And to connect with Kerry McDonald - his LinkedIn profile is here.

    Episode 106: 12 Motivations to Drive Sustainable Choices - with Tom Ellis, CEO, Brand Genetics

    “If people genuinely care about sustainability, how can Marketers redesign systems to make the right choice the easiest one?” In this episode of the Can Marketing Save the Planet podcast?, we’re joined by Tom Ellis, CEO at Brand Genetics where we explore the psychology behind sustainable behaviour change, specifically digging into motivations, but from many different angles – 12 to be precise! As Tom explains, "If you can align to people’s motivations, you can shift their behaviour in a way that feels natural—like they’re getting closer to their own goals." Tom shares insights from their research, "Marketing a Difference: A Brand Owner’s Guide to Motivating Sustainable Choices," which identifies 12 key motivations, but what caught our eye when we first came across these insights was the way in which the motivations were presented, with six drivers that encourage sustainable actions and six barriers that hold people back. The research breaks each of these down, explaining the psychology and the ‘SO WHAT?’ behind them. It’s an interesting piece of work and a useful resource for Marketers who are interested in what motivates people. Tom talks about behavioural ‘tricks’, or nudges which push us in the right direction, however, given where we are in relation to the climate crisis, these are no longer enough, instead we need to engender deep, motivation-driven behavioural shifts to tackle the increasing challenges. We discuss the power of motivations and how people act based on core human goals (security, belonging, status etc), and showcase how by aligning sustainability with these, there is more opportunity to drive long-term change. Tom’s advice to Marketers looking at their audiences and stakeholders is, “move from asking, who are we targeting to, what are they motivated by?” . If people genuinely care about sustainability, how can Marketers redesign systems to make the right choice the easiest one? It’s a similar question to the one that came up a couple of years ago when Seth Godin came on the podcast, where he asked… “How can Marketers tell a true story about climate and our impact, so that we can change the systems in our lives, tread more resiliently on the earth, and are more proud of what we are doing?” ...this not only reiterates the significant opportunity Marketers have to drive real and meaningful change, but also the reality that not enough of us are using our skills to do so. So, perhaps start with yourself, what motivates you and what are your drivers or barriers? Tune in as we talk to Tom about: Why motivations matter and how they drive action more than facts. The 12 motivations and how they work. Overcoming barriers, when cost, convenience, and denial hinder progress - how can we address these? The role of habit in driving motivation. Tapping into value rather than guilt. Thinking beyond "consumers", we have got to think of people as humans with complex lives, not just shoppers at a shelf. What to do when the objectives of Marketers and motivations of consumers clash. Link to the research ‘Marketing a Difference: A Brand Owner’s Guide to Motivating Sustainable Choices ‘ - here.

    Episode 105: Can Marketing Drive the Sustainable Transition? - with Leo Rayman, Founder - EdenLab

    Reimagining Business in a low-carbon economy… In this episode of Can Marketing Save the Planet, we catch up with Leo Raymond, founder of EdenLab, talking about marketing’s potential to reshape business for sustainability. Leo shares his journey into the sustainability space, sparked by a moment of clarity when his son asked him what he did for a living, he shares… "sustainability was jargon-filled, techno-babble nightmarishness… but I saw an opportunity to repoint marketing’s creativity towards positive behaviour change." Leo argues that Marketers, as behaviour shaping experts, must pivot their creativity toward systemic solutions. He highlights the disconnect, but also the enormous opportunity between marketing and sustainability, noting the sector’s untapped potential for strategic problem-solving. "If businesses can’t make money being green, they won’t do it. Our role is to help them see the new abundance ahead." EdenLab’s mission emerged from the gap he identified, focusing on reimagining markets. Leo also shares his experience of working with brands and discusses EdenLab’s new ‘Greenwash Guardian’, an AI tool designed to help brands communicate sustainability claims authentically. We touch on challenges such as greenhushing, corporate short-termism, and the need for more collaborative innovation upstream when it comes to circularity. Leo remains optimistic even as we face strange times, advocating for Marketers to move beyond promotion and into systemic innovation, addressing sustainability at the product, pricing, and business-model levels. Leo’s call to action is, "believe you’re part of the solution", marketing has the power to drive the transition, provided it leans into creativity, evidence, and bold storytelling. Tune in as we talk to Leo about: Marketing’s strategic role Opportunity over apocalypse - dramatic, but true Framing sustainability as a growth driver vs. doom driven narratives Challenges around the circular economy Degrowth vs. Innovation – is "degrowth" a hard sell? Leo’s request for a brief which proposes how do we, "make twice the profit for half the material throughput" as a viable business objective. For more information, connect with Leo via LinkedIn.

    Episode 104: Marketers … ‘What will your legacy be?’ Sangeeta Waldron, Author, Founder, Serendipity PR and Media

    If legacy is defined by the choices we make today, how can Marketers and communicators reframe "business as usual" to align with planetary survival before it’s too late? In this episode of Can Marketing Save the Planet? we welcome back Sangeeta Waldron, a communications expert, three times published author, and Founder of Serendipity PR and Media. Sangeeta discusses her latest book, ‘What Will Your Legacy Be?’ - expanding on her previous book by reaching a broader audience beyond the business and PR world. It’s a book that is so easy to get lost in and a wonderful, empowering hope filled read - reminding us just how much collective climate action is taking place across the world by people from all walks of life. The book features 36 global conversations with scientists, indigenous leaders, business professionals and activists all working toward meaningful environmental change. Sangeeta shares her learnings from her research and writing journey and the moment she realised what she was creating was a book of hope. She tells us, "if you don’t have hope, how will you change anything? If you just give up with despair, you’re not going to make change." This ethos drives her book, emphasising the power of storytelling in raising awareness and letting people know that they too can take action. Sangeeta explains that a big takeaway from the book was, it made her realise that legacy starts young - the point when you make begin making choices, she shares, “legacy is no longer what we're thinking about as we get older, legacy is now as young as the age of 14, once you can make your own informed choices in what you're buying and doing, that's your legacy, because that is now connected to your carbon footprint.” We discuss many areas in this episode - from the hidden climate cost of war, where conflicts disrupt weather patterns and food systems, to nature’s intelligence and how ecosystems thrive on balance, a principle humans have ignored. We dive into the important role of local journalism in educating and empowering community action, and how businesses must adapt for example, seasonal marketing and supply chains need climate-conscious strategies, yet, these aren’t currently happening. Sangeeta also shares her transformative experience with Al Gore’s Climate Reality Project, underscoring the need for global collaboration. Despite political and corporate resistance, she remains hopeful, urging communicators to speak boldly about the climate crisis. Reflecting on her mission, she explains, "I wrote this book not for the converted, but for those who have no idea, or maybe aren’t even interested - because the climate crisis is interconnected with everything." Tune in as we talk to Sangeeta about: How we should learn from indigenous wisdom, where sustainable practices are rooted in reciprocity, something that can guide modern solutions. The critical role of local media and their position and responsibility to inform, tell the truth and build community resilience. The need for strategic thinking when it comes to marketing in today’s operating environment, we can’t just keep doing what we’re doing. How we need conversations which spark change (beyond the echo chamber), and create ripples of action. How everyone has the opportunity to make changes and take action – one person can do so much. For more information, connect with Sangeeta via LinkedIn - and her book can be found globally, in all good bookshops and online, via booksellers.

    Episode 103: ‘Navigating Greenwashing and Green Claims - 4-Part Mini Series’, Part 4 - Adrian Ma, Founder, Fanclub PR

    Agencies and green claims – Walking the talk or just talking? In our final episode of our four part mini-series on navigating green claims and greenwashing we speak to Adrian Ma, founder of Fanclub PR, about the role of agencies in green claims and the rise of purpose-led marketing. Adrian shares his insights from working with impact-driven brands such as Who Gives a Crap, Music Magpie, SMOL and many more, and dives into the challenges agencies face in balancing creativity with compliance. Adrian talks us through the journey Fanclub PR is on and notes the ‘purpose-led’ space is gaining a lot of traction, but with a big question mark over the authenticity and ‘trends’ many are jumping on. Adrian explains how at a recent roundtable event he attended, many introduced themselves as ‘purpose-led agencies’, in addition to that, Meta descriptions of 450 agencies revealed the number one trend was all related to … you guessed it… purpose. However, as Adrian states, “there's a huge, huge disconnect here when it comes to awareness of green claims, I think the awareness is low and the trend is that most agency people are led by the clients (which is fine), but agencies have a duty of care to their own staff to make sure that they know stuff.” At Fanclub PR Adrian and his team work closely with organisations such as Clean Creatives (two-time guests on the podcast - EP 24 and EP 67), and Creatives for Climate, with whom they have helped create an agency guide to greenwashing to support knowledge, education and awareness. (Linked below). On greenwashing vs. greenhushing, Adrian believes, "good creative agencies should help brands be transparent, giving them the confidence to talk about what they’re doing”. We discuss the importance of good communication, something we are very passionate about at Can Marketing Save the Planet, given effective communication is critical to driving engagement and change, both internally and externally. Adrian agrees that communication cannot be underestimated as part of the green claims process, telling us “that process of interrogation is only going to make the work stronger”. As well as good communication we also touch on the future of marketing where Adrian is a firm believer in, "if brands stay consistent with their commitments year after year, they build communities, confidence, and leadership—that’s where real change happens."  Tune in as we talk to Adrian about: The need for agencies to educate their teams on greenwashing to ensure compliance and ethical, authentic storytelling. How transparency beats perfection and how brands should be sharing both successes and challenges to build trust. The disconnect between sustainability teams (focused on data) and agencies (focused on messaging) and the need for collaboration to bridge that gap. How consistency builds impact and creates deeper engagement than those jumping between campaigns. Why good communication is critical both internally and externally and the need to challenge will only make the work stronger.

    Episode 102: ‘Navigating Greenwashing and Green Claims - 4-Part Mini Series’, Part 3 - Katie-Scarlett Wetherall, Lawyer, ClientEarth

    In this episode of the Can Marketing Save the Planet? podcast, we continue on our navigating green claims and greenwashing mini-series speaking with Katie Wetherall, a lawyer at ClientEarth about the brilliant work they do and taking a deep dive into the world of plastics, packaging and recycling. It’s no secret that marketing tactics in this area are long overdue a review. Clever marketing can mislead consumers with what are essentially false sustainability claims - particularly, when one takes into account the bigger picture and lifecycle of the product they appear on. Katie shares with us her insights from legal actions ClientEarth has taken against major corporations such as BP, Total Energies and KLM for misleading claims. In the case of KLM, she explains, “the Dutch court ruled that their claims about the sustainability of flying were misleading and in fact the judge said they painted a far too rosier picture about these kind of high emission activities and the company's compliance with things like the Paris Agreement.” A lot of Katie’s work focuses on greenwashing legal actions and increasingly the area of plastics and consumer goods. The reality of plastic recycling is woeful, Katie shares, “only 9% of all plastic ever produced has been recycled, yet companies continue to label products as "100% recyclable, and even in the UK which has got quite an established sophisticated waste management system the stats hover at around 55%. So I think as an organisation, we argue that that green loop, (sometimes it's a triangle), but that circular symbol, gives a misleading impression of the circularity of plastic.” We go on to talk about the many different challenges of single use plastic; packaging, descriptors and labelling which we see everywhere on products across our everyday lives. Using green symbols and imagery is an area that Katie advises, “I would discourage Marketers from putting the recyclability of a product at the forefront of its marketing, because this is a process they have no control over and which statistics suggest does not work.” There is a lot of great insight and advice shared in this episode which will apply to a lot of organisations, Marketers and products. Tune in as we talk to Katie about: The problem with recycling symbols and should they even be allowed when they don’t guarantee recyclability? The need for Marketers to consider the green claims they are making across the lifecycle of their products. The need to prioritise transparency Shifting to reusable packaging models – not relying on broken recycling systems Supporting people to make informed decisions How greenhushing doesn’t solve the problem   For more information about ClientEarth and the great work they do - visit https://www.clientearth.org/ And, if you’re looking to upskill your team with the green claims landscape - be sure to check out our 3 hour Greenwashing 101 short training course via our Sustainable Marketing Training Hub.

Can Marketing Save the Planet? It’s a big question, and one our podcast sets out to explore with marketers, senior leaders, CMOs and sustainability consultants and experts. Our purpose is to drive education, share best practice, inspire and empower listeners to ask questions and importantly… start taking action. Sitting at the heart of brand, communications, stakeholders and product development, marketers have a significant role to play when it comes to promoting and driving sustainability. As marketers and business leaders developing and marketing products and services, we need to recognise that we’re part of the problem. In an age of growing authenticity and consumer demands for more transparency, it is more important than ever for brands to communicate their responsible and sustainable practices, to stand up for causes they’re passionate about and importantly, follow through on the promises they may. In our view, there’s no one better placed to effect change, align with and influence customers and drive hope for a better, more sustainable future, than an 'educated and aware', responsible marketer.
