Can marketing save the planet?

With the built environment contributing up to 40% of all global greenhouse gas emissions, and a UK government target of net zero carbon by 2050, it’s no surprise that sustainability continues to be a key priority for the real estate sector. But how many of us have truly considered how property marketing teams can contribute beyond greenwashing our content?

In this webinar, Gemma Butler from The Chartered Institute of Marketing, who recently co-authored a book called Sustainable Marketing, will explain the leading role marketing teams can play in the sustainable transformation of businesses.
