Enhancing the value and effectiveness of environmental claims: protecting and empowering consumers - OECD workshop

du 15-avr.-2010 au 16-avr.-2010

Environmental claims have the potential to play an important role in encouraging consumers to make choices which support environmental goals, while rewarding innovative companies for their efforts in this regard. The impact of claims will be reduced, however, to the extent that they are unclear, confusing or fraudulent, diminishing consumer interest and confidence in green products and services. Thus, policymakers are challenged to provide consumers with meaningful information that could influence their behaviour, thereby expanding consumer choices that support sustainable consumption.
