Greenwashing, And How to Avoid It
Greenwashing is advertising that carries misleading environmental claims, and it is a serious issue. An issue that could damage public trust in the genuine sustainable claims that brands make. It is essential that, as an industry, we promote our clients in totally open, honest, and transparent ways so that we can preserve the public’s trust in our work. Greenwashing not only erodes trust towards advertising (thus, reducing overall advertising effectiveness) but could even discourage companies from promoting their green initiatives, in fear of being labelled “greenwashers.” This is a topic that we need to get right.
