Op-Ed: Are corporate claims of ‘greenhushing’ just more greenwashing?

In an Op-Ed for Corporate Knights, Wren Montgomery explains the relationship Bill C-59—Canada’s anti-greenwashing bill—and corporate claims of “greenhushing.”

She points out how these companies might be confused what “greenhushing” really is, and why instead there’s actually blatant greenwashing that continues.

“If firms are loudly telling us they are still doing green things, yet providing no evidence, this is not greenhushing. It is just our same old friend greenwashing in a different guise. Vague and unsupported environmental claims are greenwashing.”
