Pp. 210-220.Currently, influencer marketing plays a significant role in communicating various social issues, including environmental topics. Collaborating with some types of relevant influencers can be an effective way for businesses to spread environmental awareness while also motivating the public to adopt more socially responsible behavior. The aim of this paper is to analyze the impact of greenfluencers on the consumer behavior and values of Generation Z, based on the results of a questionnaire survey. A questionnaire survey is considered as the most appropriate data collection technique, because it allows for quick data collection and processing. Generation Z is considered the most environmentally conscious generation to date, and our primary research, conducted through a questionnaire survey, revealed that greenfluencer marketing has a positive impact on changing consumer mindset, but only to a certain extent. The results of research confirmed that collaboration with influencers can be an effective way to ensure the dissemination of environmental awareness and can also motivate consumers toward more socially responsible behavior. The responses from the questionnaire survey respondents indicated that authenticity is a key factor that increases trust among Generation Z respondents. The findings point to the fact that greenfluencer marketing has a significant impact on consumer purchasing behavior of Generation Z, especially in the case of ecological products. Respondents state that observing greenfluencers motivates them to make behavioral changes, such as switching to sustainable products, composting, or reducing fast fashion consumption.enCC BY-NC-ND Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0.
