Greenwashing in Single-Use Plastics Generates Lawsuits in Europe – 2GreenEnergy.com


From “The Story of Stuff”:

A authorized criticism towards Coca-Cola, Danone, and Nestlé has been issued by a client physique and two environmental teams in Europe.

The criticism alleges the businesses are deceptive shoppers into shopping for a product which is bought as being climate-friendly or sustainable, generally known as greenwashing, in relation to their ‘100% recycled’ claims on single-use plastic water bottles.

The European Shoppers Group, backed by the environmental teams Shopper Earth and ECOS, claims the bottles are by no means made wholly of recycled supplies. They are saying the power to recycle them is dependent upon various components, together with the instruments obtainable.

Coca-Cola mentioned its packaging messages might be substantiated, Nestlé mentioned it was chopping use of plastic packaging, and Danone mentioned it was invested in recycling.

Each time I see one thing like this I consider the tens of millions of individuals employed in industries that collectively degrade our planet, to not point out the well being of their clients, and the sensation of compromised integrity that should accompany such a profession choice.
