Greenwashing involves techniques and rhetoric that companies use to convince the public that they are doing more good for the planet and its people than they actually are. It is a deception designed to extract more money from their customers by placating their worries with false promises. It misleads consumer decisions and slows climate action by promoting a false sense of security and encouraging complacency.

This episode will explain greenwashing using examples and make some suggestion son how to avoid being pulled in by it. Check the links below for more info:
