Description
Greenwashing could be understood as a practice that companies and organisations engage with when (re)branding ideas on the pretence that they contribute to environmentally friendly and sustainable practices. Usually, such organisations are hiding or distracting attention away from unsustainable operations.
This presentation identifies the extent of greenwashing in society. Specifically, it explores how data and information can be manipulated to turn negative conceptions of a sector/company/brand into a caricature of benevolent self-sacrifice.
