Eco-friendly or eco-phoney?

  Companies use lots of sneaky tactics which can make it hard to avoid greenwashing completely. But there are two ways you can get ahead of greenwash. One: equip yourself with knowledge so you can avoid getting tricked. And two: help create a world where companies can't get away with greenwashing. Here are some things you can do:
  Challenge companies for greenwashing. Public pressure is an effective way to expose misleading advertising and send the message that greenwashing won't cut it. That might mean tagging the company on social media, signing petitions, telling your friends [...] or supporting organisations campaigning against greenwash.
  Become an active citizen. We know companies need to do things differently so we need to come together to demand it. Voting, writing letters to your MP, protesting and joining community groups are just some of the ways that you can make your voice heard. You can take steps to push for change to happen.
  Stay informed. Familiarise yourself with common greenwashing techniques so you can spot them in the wild. [...] Learning about things can help you make informed decisions for your needs and lifestyle. You'll slowly start noticing when a company is greenwashing.
