KUALA LUMPUR: In recent years, phrases like "Go Green and save our Mother Earth" and "We use sustainable and recycled plastic materials" have become quite popular and can be found on labels or in advertisements of household products.

As society becomes more environmentally conscious, consumers are turning to eco-friendly products and services. But if you have ever chosen a product based on packaging that proudly displays terms like "eco-friendly" or "made from recycled materials" without bearing a certified logo, you may have fallen victim to greenwashing.
