Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

The three types of green advertising appeals are:
1 . Ads that address a relationship between a product/service and the biophysical environment. The example given in the text is an ad for Shell and how they found ways to make large scale production and a commercial reality for producing ethanol from agricultural wastes. Another example is o.b. tampons touting their lack of applicators as generating less waste.
2 . Ads that promote a green lifestyle without highlighting a product or service. Some companies, such as Ben & Jerry's, promote environmental awareness but not necessarily their specific products.
3 . Ads that present a corporate image of environmental responsibility. Examples could be how companies have complied with environmental initiatives before they were enforceable by law or are not even law.
