Not convinced about the sustainability argument when it comes to the purchasing behaviour of consumers? Think again.

And if ever there was concern that the term ‘sustainability’ is still perhaps ambiguous in definition to some people, the survey found 20 percent of respondents didn’t know what it meant.
