Are Food Businesses Simply “Greenwishing”?

Description:

Eaters are increasingly looking for food options that are good for themselves, animals, and the environment. But as companies respond to consumer demand, it can be hard to distinguish between the brands taking real action toward sustainability and those hiding behind false claims, or the companies that claim to change by 2050, but aren't taking action now.
