Building trust: the power of effective sustainability communications

As sustainability remains a core concern for consumers, businesses across every sector are increasingly highlighting their commitment to sustainable practices. However, with the rise of greenwashing and greenhushing — the practice of downplaying or concealing environmental issues — merely making sustainability claims is no longer enough to win over discerning customers.

This will help you build measurement principles that help create consistency and accuracy in all carbon foot printing activities.
