Greenwashing vs. Green-Proving
Building Authentic Consumer Trust

As more brands embrace sustainability messaging—especially during Earth Month—consumers are listening, but with increasing scrutiny.

According to Kantar, over half of global consumers believe brands across all industries are misleading when communicating their environmental efforts. Sectors like social media (60%), meat products (58%), and fashion (57%) top the list for greenwashing concerns.

So how can your brand rise above the skepticism?

It starts with green-proving—going beyond vague claims to demonstrate credible, measurable progress:

• Share tangible results—not broad intentions
• Avoid generic buzzwords like ‘eco-friendly’ without context
• Use verified data or third-party certifications
• Align sustainability goals with your brand’s broader mission

In today’s market, transparency is everything. Brands that prove—not just promise—are the ones building lasting loyalty and driving real impact.
