  • Banned greenwashing terms - SOLO ep 👋

    Banned greenwashing terms - SOLO ep 👋
    May 6 2024
    Greenwashing officially given the boot in the EU … and what it means for Australia. In this solo ep with just me, Rach Green, I’m explaining the EU’s ban, what it means for Australian small business + how it will change your copy and messaging. The EU has given greenwashing terms the boot and it's currently in process to become law. I’m cheering the EU’s move because it’s likely that Australia will follow this bold, much needed step to kill the BS, stop misleading buyers and put the importance on the planet that it deserves with action. Hold up - what’s greenwashing? It’s a topic I explored in this blog and also in this pod with Sam Rankin a few episodes ago. So go check that out if you want to dive deeper into greenwashing and messaging. Greenwashing is defined by the European Parliament as “The practice of giving a false impression of the environmental impact or benefits of a product, which can mislead consumers”. Greenwashing is saying sustainable things that your product isn’t, so buyers choose it in the misbelief that they are making planet friendly purchases. Greenwashers use words like “eco friendly”, “natural”, “sustainably made”, “planet conscious” etc when they are none of these things – and when their claims aren’t proven. The UN makes it clear: “greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon and methane, from human activities are wrapping the Earth in a blanket of pollution that has warmed the planet and led to severe impacts such as more intense storms, droughts, floods and wildfires.” In Australia, we know this – crazy, out of control busy fires. Wild storms that unleash rock-size hail balls. Whipping winds like we’ve never seen. Climate change is undeniable - it is caused by humans. What’s so wrong about greenwashing? It’s dangerous, deliberate and deceptive. Simply, it’s unethical. It’s a marketing tactic. And this kind of shady marketing (excellent pod on unethical marketing with Mia Fileman) is exactly why for a long time I’ve been ashamed to be a marketer with a degree in marketing. Because marketing is twisted. It plays on our weaknesses, our ignorance, on the truth. It’s also why I am now a copywriter for brands with conscience. Because I want to help the good ones – the people who give a damn about tomorrow with the impact and actions of today. Greenwashing is misleading customers at the cost of the planet. It’s unsustainable - the world has long known about the limited resources we have. It’s a false economy for the earth. For example, products labelled “compostable” without any mention of Australian standards as home compostable are not actually meant to break down in your garden compost. They just say that so you feel better about buying it – it’s playing on your guilt and targeting the consumers who do care about their impact on the planet. We have to do better. What’s banned? In January 2024, the EU declared these are the greenwashing terms they will ban unless you have certified third party proof: Environmentally friendlyNaturalBiodegradableClimate neutralEco These new rules make product labelling clearer and more trustworthy – without vague green claims. The proof for green claims must come from an independent certified authority, which could be something in Australia like B Corp, Australian Certified Organic, Australasian Bioplastics Association, Forest Stewardship Council certified etc. This HUGE change will come into force by the end of 2026. European brands are scrambling to sort out their products, sourcing, messaging and packaging right now. If you’re thinking “This is excellent – but what does it mean for Australia?” I’ll let the European Parliament’s rapporteur Biljana Borzan (S&D, HR) tell you. “People will be able to choose products that are more durable, repairable and sustainable thanks to reliable labels and advertisements. Most importantly, companies can no longer trick people by saying that plastic bottles are good because the company planted trees somewhere – or say that something is sustainable without explaining how. This is a big win for all of us!” Australia often follows the EU’s lead… we have strong political, economic and cultural ties with the EU, working closely to meet shared global responsibilities such as promoting sustainable development, tackling climate change and respect for international law. In December 2023, the ACCC launched new guidelines for making environmental claims for business, which could be the perfect launchpad for adopting the EU’s greenwashing ban here. If we see it roll out successfully there, I hope we will learn and copy. What does this mean for Australian small business? Good things, many good things – for people, planet and hopefully profit. Better choices and empowered buying. You’ll have 100% confidence that your purchases are planet friendly. You won’t need to double think and do your own research to ...
