Greenwashing describes a false, misleading,
or untrue action or set of claims made by an
organization about the positive impact that
a company, product, or service has on the
environment. The company pretends that its
actions are environmentally friendly when they
are not. A common example of greenwashing
is including buzzwords in product descriptions
such as ‘eco’, ‘sustainable’, or ‘carbon neutral’
while the organisations responsible for these
‘green’ products have done very little or nothing
to reduce their carbon footprint.

When buying something new, we consider
the price, value, colour, and other factors that
help us make our final decision. However,
responsible shopping asks us to look more
deeply than that. A responsible customer
makes wise decisions, considering the human
cost, quality, and low-environmental impact of
the product. Like all sustainable travel and life
practices, responsible shopping means doing
research before buying and rethinking choices
while looking for more eco-friendly alternatives.
