The new proposals will also cover brand-owned sustainability labels and genetic phrases such as “green” or “eco-friendly.”

    The magic of the internet. Doesn’t matter the topic, it might be green washing, nuclear power, 17th century french clothing or paranormal activities, the person with the dumbest take always happens to be an expert on the topic. You can start by reading the article, the you can check this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p8zAbFKpW0 Or this https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/may/23/ceo-of-worlds-biggest-carbon-credit-provider-says-he-is-resigning

    I’m amazed you work on sustainability teams, but are like “duh, green washing is bad, but being actually sustainable is less profitable, so, you know, fuck that, it’s the logical conclusion”

    Sorry if I went to hard on you, but it’s hard to know if you’re trolling or so much part of the problem that you don’t even realize.
