Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of green marketing strategies in shaping consumer purchasing behavior. We analyze the role of eco-labeling, corporate social responsibility campaigns, and sustainable product designs. Findings reveal that consumers increasingly value sustainability, but price sensitivity and trust in green claims remain key factors in purchase decisions.
