Influential non-governmental organisations and governments are bringing marketing to task over its perceived and real lack of concern for ethical and socially responsible behaviour. The theme of the EMAC 2008 Conference is to examine the marketing landscape, to continue the debate, and assess if we have over specialized the discipline into ‘silos’ and narrowed our perspectives resulting in a failure to look at the bigger picture.

Venue: Canada, Toronto
The mini-track focuses on innovative design and use of Decision Support Systems (DSS), and their application to the environmental domain. The urgency and scope of environmental problems call for both immediate action and sustainable long-term strategies. Consequently, decision-makers need to reexamine their knowledge assets and identify new methods to exploit them more effectively. The fields of environmental communication, ecosystem monitoring and environmental resource management are constantly developing such methods.

Modern societies establish socio-economic or industrial metabolisms to supply the need of their inhabitants. In this perspective sustainability can be taken as an overall concept to maintain the socio-economic metabolism in the long run, e.g., sustainable use of resources and energy, impacts of products and processes on climate, climate change impacts on value chains etc.

Venue: Germany, Hamburg
Although climate change is regarded as a critical issue and sound scientific knowledge is needed in order to address the problem in a holistic way, there is a paucity of events focusing on the different aspects of climate change. Therefore, an internet-based (and therefore largely CO2-neutral) scientific event concerned with approaches, methods, strategies, and other types of action needed in order to cope with the challenge of climate change, is a welcome development. It is on the basis of this perceived need that the Conference "Climate 2008/ Klima 2008" is being organised.
