What can we do to improve
green claims for consumers?

Date: Tue 6 December 2022
Time: 4PM AEDT
Location: Online webinar

With a growing market for environmental products, consumers are surrounded by claims about green and sustainable features. 

Products and services may make claims such as ‘sustainable’, ‘carbon neutral,’ etc, but the vague and broad nature of the claims means that consumers are not able to verify them.

Consumers are left hoping that businesses are following through on their sustainable promises. These claims may cause harm for sustainability efforts but also to consumers. So, how can we make green claims work for consumers?

Join in the conversation as we discuss, what can we do to improve green claims for consumers?
