Greenwashing without even trying
Some companies think they can jump on the green bandwagon (thereby sharing in the dramatically increasing sales in the green market) without really trying. We wrote about steps to greenwash your product here. But some companies don’t even read our guide and trying half-assed, half-witted attempts at greening their products. Cracked did a lovely job of calling out 6 half-assed attempts at greenwashing here.

I always try to find ‘green’ items when I’m going shopping and it really irritates me that some companies use the worst kind of tricks to make us think their products are green, like using some recycled materials or putting green colours in the packaging.
