Greenwashing Revisted - November 29, 2007


As you may or may not recall, depending on how often you read this blog, I recently posted about "greenwashing". It was essentially about how all sorts of companies claim to be "green" just so they can lure conscientious consumers to buy their products. It is actually a really huge and annoying trend right now.

Well...enter the Federal Trade Commission. As of now, they FTC will accelerate a review of how companies market environmental claims, including measures to offset carbon dioxide emissions.

Look out oil companies!!!
