Speaker Details: Seattle Tilth is developing a social marketing program
to pilot approaches to reduce residential pesticide use. The work
targets two audiences and their respective behaviors: 1) Reduction of
hazardous pesticide application in single family households as measured
by retail sales data of target products, and 2) Changes in marketing,
product displays, and customer support by product retailers. The program
will focus on products found by NOAA to be harmful to threatened and
endangered salmon stocks. It is based on pilot work on Vashon Island by
the Garden Green-Drink Clean group, which produced measurable changes in
local retail sales data for hazardous pesticides.
