Unintentional greenwashing and how to avoid it

Recorded on July 20, 2022

Good intentions and bad mathematics can lead to unintentional greenwashing

Many businesses feel the urgent need to minimize and report their carbon emissions.

Expanding legislation means that more and more businesses globally have to disclose their emissions to stay compliant. Meanwhile, there’s growing demand from consumers for businesses to take demonstrable climate action.

However, taking climate action is complicated even for businesses with good intentions, and some businesses make mistakes along the way – resulting in unintentional greenwashing, and all its consequences.
