Speaking – Green Keynote Presentations

Environmental author, entrepreneur,  television host, radio personality and spokesperson Josh Dorfman, a.k.a. The Lazy Environmentalist, delivers green keynote presentations that take audiences to the cutting-edge of green innovation.

Josh has delivered green speaker presentations to companies such as Google, PepsiCo, Apple, Volkswagen, Clorox, and MTV Networks as well as institutions such as the Aspen Institute, the World Science Festival and the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business (twice in ‘09).

Regarded as one of today’s most dynamic and engaging green speakers, Josh presents his unique insights, research and experiences on several topics:

GREEN KEYNOTE PRESENTATION TOPICS:

The Art of Green Persuasion: How To Successfully Tell Your Green Story To Consumers
In a time when it seems that every company is going green, maximizing ROI on your company’s environmental initiatives isn’t always easy. Yet, the right green communication strategy can boost sales, build brand loyalty and garner widespread positive press coverage. Drawing upon his own in-the-trenches experience, Josh shares the principles for winning over not only the environmentally inclined but also the environmentally skeptical, indifferent and just plain lazy. Green is good for business provided you know how to talk about it.

Enough With The Polar Bears Already: How To Really Sell Green To America
Learn real-world communication tactics that persuade even the staunchest skeptics that an environmental policy agenda is vital to the national interest and their own self-interest too.

Green Living 2.0: Awesome Choices For Lazy People
Discover how it’s easier, more affordable and more stylish than ever before to live according to your environmental values. Learn about the designers, inventors, entrepreneurs and policymakers who are doing the heavy eco-lifting so we don’t have to.
