Which of the following is not an example of greenwashing?选项:
A.A company makes accurate representations of the environmental benefits of its production methods in its regulatory filings. B.A company represented that its techniques were environmentally friendly and utilized suppliers that produced high volumes of wastewater. C.A bank advertised its global financing extended to help its clients transition to net zero and continued to significantly finance investments in businesses and industries that emitted notable levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.解释:
A is correct. The possible categories of misrepresentation include commitments without any guarantees of action, misstatements on product attributes, or misleading disclosures. Misstatements on product attributes: A securities class action was filed against a food and beverage company, whereby shareholders claimed that the company had misrepresented the environmental benefits of its production methods in its regulatory filings. The company claimed that its techniques were environmentally friendly, but the claimants argued that, in actual fact, the company's production processes exhibited almost equivalent greenhouse gas emissions, required similar land usage, and utilized suppliers that produced dangerously high volumes of wastewater. Misleading disclosures: The UK advertising watchdog banned the series of HSBC adverts on the grounds of “misleading advertising and environmental claims”, citing HSBC’s failure to acknowledge its own contribution to emissions and said any future campaigns must disclose the bank’s contribution to the climate crisis. Despite the initiatives highlighted in the adverts, HSBC was continuing to significantly finance investments in businesses and industries that emitted notable levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.我对于漂绿行为的理解是:一个项目的负责人为了获得融资,就谎称自己的项目是绿色的,实际上存在棕色的情况。主要是需要获得融资的人有漂绿的行为,而C选项,银行是提供资金的人,就不在漂绿行为的范围内。
我对漂绿行为的理解有错吗?如果有误,请具体指出来,谢谢!
