New "Green Confidence Index" created by Syracuse company, Earthsense, LLC



Syracuse-based market research company Earthsense LLC is launching a global Green Confidence Index (GCI) that is expected to become a barometer of consumer attitudes and behaviors related to green products.  The company launched the project with GreenBiz.com, a major on-line green business publication.

According to GreenBiz.com, this project takes the first "realistic, nuanced" look at how and what average Americans think about green.  The new GCI will be a monthly survey of 2,500 adults across the country that is intended to track change on a consistent basis through a statistically significant sample.  The index will track what U.S., state and local governments are doing to address environmental issues.

The Green Confidence Index will be a subscription service that will offer in-depth consumer information.  To download the first issue for free:  www.greenconfidenceindex.com

Earthsense LLC was founded in 2007 by Wendy Cobra and Amy Hebard.  To learn more about Earthsense LLC, which is located at The Tech Garden, a high tech business incubator in Syracuse, NY, visit: www.earthsense.com
