Mintel's new Green and Ethical Consumers report

Mintel's new Green and Ethical Consumers report, published in January 2007, is now available online.
The report provides a wealth of information covering: Changing attitudes to ethical and environmental issues; Ethical fashion; discussion on whether companies are genuinely interested in ethical issues or just trying to look good; Ethical issues as they affect a range of sectors (grocery shopping; energy, fashion; beauty; travel; financial products); the Organic sector; Fair trade; and even organic weddings!
The Library has subscribed to Mintel's British Lifestyles report for a number of years, and the March 2007 edition is now available online.
This wide ranging report covers population, housing and lifestyle trends; saving habits; leisure activities; marriage and divorce trends; civil partnership statistics; employment trends; cultural trends; youth; women; retirement; sexuality; religion; Internet use; life stage variations in consumer and behaviour patterns, etc.
In short, if you are interested in social and cultural trends and change in Britain, there will be plenty to interest you within these two reports. Both provide the most recently available statistics.
The Mintel database provides expert reports with detailed information on consumer buying patterns, product and service sector performance, and social trends. Our subscription also includes: all UK Market Intelligence reports; European Consumer Goods Intelligence; Food and Drink reports; and UK Fashion Retail reports.
You can access the Mintel database via the Electronic Resources section of the Library website www.ucreative.ac.uk/library
