This project will provide EU and national policy makers with foresight analysis on future fundamental rights challenges and opportunities, as well as providing guidance on building fundamental rights considerations into their strategic reflections.
Green? Carbon neutral? Many of these claims are not evidence-based. Companies use them to persuade people to buy products or services that may not be sustainable. Such greenwashing practices may deceive consumers and harm the environment. A new report from the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) considers what the EU and countries should do to combat greenwashing and support consumers in making informed and environmentally friendly choices.
