Thrifty or Green?

So the economy is in a tad of trouble and all our concerns over the environment immediately go out of the window? That seems to be the basis of the countless 'thrifty consumers' articles I have read recently.

We weren't comfortable with that prognosis at Gyro (surely this will be about different segments? and why are the two mutually exclusive?) so decided to conduct a spot of research to see what the true situation was. We spoke to over 2,000 consumers and markers in the UK, Europe and the US and discovered that things aren't so black and white ... they seldom are.

We'll be publishing a report on the subject after Christmas but safe to say we have found some interesting differences in views ... especially between the consumer and the marketing professional!

Let me know if you would like a copy of the report.
