Spotlight on greenwashing under the Competition Act
Manage episode 454036495 series 3533849
In this article — Spotlight on greenwashing under the Competition Act — we discuss how environmental claims relating to company products, services and business activities may be subject to increased scrutiny following recent competition law changes. The best defence remains to make claims that are responsible and made on a supportable basis. Going forward, organizations can use this opportunity to review the nature and extent of their statements on climate-related and other environmental matters for compliance.
