description Environmental (green) advertisements fall into one of three categories: they can express a positive relationship between a product or service and the environment, they can present a corporate image of environmental responsibility, or they can promote a green lifestyle. The forest products industry began publishing green ads several years ago. This study, which examined 323 issues of 6 magazines published between January 1995 and March 2000, used content analysis to measure the level of greenness of an individual advertisement and to help give suggestions for increasing it. Methodology was based on the MECCAS model, which describes an effective advertisement. Five levels of greenness were defined, ranging from more to less green: extra green, green, light green, green-brown, and brown. Fifty-seven percent of the collected advertisements fell into the extra green and green categories. Suggested improvements include making ads look green.
