Deep-dive workshops: Avoiding Greenwashing Through Evidence-based Claim Verification Martina Kerbl•Chris Baird
As concerns over environmental issues rise, so too do questions around the substantiation of marketing claims related to sustainability. In light of shifting regulations and closer scrutiny, some major brands have stepped back from certain environmental assertions.
In this workshop, we will provide actionable guidance on exercising diligence to avoid greenwashing allegations. Specifically, we will:
- Outline the recent regulatory changes in the US and EU regarding green claims - What are the claims which require verification and how to verify them with evidence based verification process. - Leverage our insight based on our sustainable claim verification service from major brands and retailers - Analyse the most common claims in the US market - Identify the sustainability claims that our verification reviews found most difficult to support - Discuss countries with the highest regulatory risk based on national standards - Additional insights and recommendations for future proof
