The message that the environment is in peril has filtered from environmental groups to society's consciousness to shopping trolleys. The green consumer movement is everywhere, yet few are asking whether this is actually any better for the planet. By examining the major economic sectors of society, Green Washed explains that consumers cannot simply buy their way to sustainability. A new and unique take on green consumption, readers are shown that buying better is only the first step towards obtaining a truly green lifestyle.

The concept of corporate sustainability has gained increasing traction over the past five decades and "green marketing" is now considered a crucial element of every marketing department's agenda. But what happens when it comes to light-as in the Volkswagen diesel-emissions scandal of 2015-that a company has been waving a green flag in order to hide a black heart? And how can companies avoid greenwashing practices that might damage their legitimacy, reputation, and market value? Riddled with case studies, expert quotes, and infographics, Green Lies encapsulates the history of sustainability, outlines the risks of greenwashing, and most importantly proposes ways that-with the right corporate commitment-green can mean gold.
