"Today’s consumers are swimming in a sea of information. Products are marketed
with big, bold words such as “sustainable”, “ethical” and “organic”. They sound
good, they catch our attention, and they make us feel better about what we buy.

The reality is, in today’s market, figuring out which claims are true is no
easy task.

One big reason is greenwashing, when brands use these buzzwords to sell
products without living up to what the words actually mean. In fashion
especially, these terms are thrown around so often that their meaning has been
watered down. Instead of being about genuine change, they are often just a
sales tool.

So, how can you know what to look out for?"
