FTC Eyes Revisions to the Guidelines that Shape Green Marketing
Advertising Partner Jeffrey A. Greenbaum is quoted in the article, "FTC Eyes Revisions to the Guidelines that Shape Green Marketing" published by Bloomberg Law. The article discusses the FTC's recent updates to the Green Guides, which influence state laws and will have a major impact on how brands can portray themselves and their products as environmentally friendly. The revisions come amid shifts in climate marketing, consumer perception, science, and the Biden administration's climate change plans. Jeff is quoted saying, "Even if the guides aren’t law, companies try to follow the advice closely." He adds, "We treat it like it is law."
Jeff notes that it is not in the long-term interest of a company to purposefully make false statements to reel in environmentally-conscious consumers.
