Manchester-based journalist and PR consultant Mark Lupton has launched a public relations agency, The Green PR Agency, dedicated to the environmental and sustainability sectors.

Lupton is a former national and local newspaper journalist who has written on issues such as renewable energy, green building and low carbon technologies for nearly a decade.

The agency has been set up to provide PR and copywriting services to businesses and organisations whose products and services help firms and individuals to reduce energy use, switch to low carbon or renewable sources of energy, limit environmental impact and reduce waste.

Mark said: “I believe passionately that the sustainability and environmental sectors will play an important part in the economic recovery.”
