The practical section presents data from a qualitative research which consisted of interviewing representatives of corporations who successfully practise the concept of CSR. The goal of the qualitative research was to establish guidelines for corporations who are beginning to implement the environmental strategy of CSR. A consequent quantitative research was carried out in the form of a public questionnaire aimed at obtaining information on the public opinion on environmental issues, on the extent of public involvement in protecting the environment and on the preference of the consumer in purchasing environmentally considerate products. Analysis of the acquired data proved that implementing the environmental pillar of CSR may lead to higher sales, the reasons being a strong public support of the importance of environmental protection and the call of the public on corporations for an environmentally considerate behavior.
