In today’s world, sustainability is important, but we need to be aware of deceptive practices. Greenwashing is a big problem where companies lie about being environmentally friendly. They use false advertising to make people think they are sustainable when they’re not. This is also called eco-washing or whitewashing. It tricks people into supporting a brand that isn’t actually sustainable.

They get feedback and industry insights to genuinely improve their environmental practices. The connections to investors and mentors also help businesses succeed with sustainable strategies.
