Greenwashing In India: Deceptive Marketing Or Genuine Sustainability?

With growing environmental awareness and increasing health concerns, consumers are actively seeking eco-friendly products. This surge in demand has led to several companies resorting to sustainable sourcing and promoting their products and services as environmentally friendly. It's important to note that not all environmental claims companies make can be trusted. Greenwashing is a deceptive marketing strategy that some companies use to give consumers the impression that their products or services are environmentally sustainable when they may not. As a result, consumers may be misled into believing that they are making eco-friendly choices when they are not.

There have been instances in global markets where companies have highlighted minor environmentally conscious actions while downplaying the overall impact of their operations.
