Green economy push

PETALING JAYA: As corporate Malaysia jumps on to the green economy bandwagon to bolster its economy going forward, there are areas that need to be fine-tuned to boost growth and minimise “greenwashing”.To minimise “greenwashing” and fuel sustainability practices, experts are urging, among others, to further forge close cooperation between the government and the private sector to ensure only clear and consistent policies are implemented.

Greater awareness on the importance of sustainability should also be embedded through education and upskilling the workforce, and providing incentives for the adoption of green technologies and practices, they said.
