Reviews in Brief

Women in Communication

NYC: Dec 2, 2008

The Sundance Channel, Whole Foods, CitiBank's Woman & Co, Weber Shandwick Worldwide and The Daily Green teamed up to talk about the state of communication and green. Highlights included:

  • "Greenwashing": Gail Heimann said that Weber Shandwick, the international PR firm, got asked. But Gail turns the conversation around, creating an opportunity to recommend directions that lead to measureable results.
  • "Green Fatigue": Sarah Eaton of the Sundance Channel said that the Bay Area in California got somewhat over reported, because so much hapens there. The Daily Green Editor, Brian Howard, talked about his concerns that green can become "ghettoized", becoming fashionable to a few.
  • However, both Linda Descano from Woman & Co and Gail Heimann agreed that green for businesses is not a fad, but simply the way that business is done. As Linda mentioned, if it were a fad, the eco investments wouldn't have held up as well as they have in this current financial climate.
  • The audience had questions for Fred Shank, from Whole Foods, about specific issues around local produce. He mentioned that pricing still affected what people bought and that seasons-particularly in the NorthEast-affect how much local produce Whole Foods could find to sell.
