The survey was sponsored by Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, the Fuqua/Coach K Center on Leadership & Ethics, Deloitte LLP and the American Marketing Association. It includes survey responses from 320 top marketers at U.S. for-profit firms.

The most common climate-related actions firms are taking include:

  • Lowering the impact of their products and services on the climate (33%)
  • Increasing “reuse, resale, and recycling levels within companies (31%),” according to the survey
  • Dedicating more money to innovation that leads to more environmentally friendly products (27%)
