Default 98% of "Eco-Friendly" Products Are "Greenwashing"

Only 25 of 2000+ "Eco-Friendly" Products Stand Up To Scrutiny

Quote:
Of the more than 2,000 self-described environmentally friendly products in North America examined by the environmental marketing firm TerraChoice, only 25 were found to be indisputably "sin free." The rest were greenwashing, a term environmentalists coined to refer to misleading environmental ads or claims.
Interesting read. Don't believe every(any?)thing you read on product labels in terms of marketing or slogans.
