Show Notes

Does the world on-pack green claims make you nervous?

We get it. Green claims are a minefield.

Today, we're bringing in a veteran of bold sustainability messaging to help us navigate the dark and somewhat dangerous world of sustainability comms. Shaunagh Duncan, Head of Sustainability at Oatly EU & I walks us through making strategic green claims, teaching us when to push boundaries and when to play it safe.

We cover how to :

  • Define a bold and impactful communication style
  • Walk the line between “greenwashing” and “green hushing”
  • Approach on-pack PCFs
  • Capitalise on the commercial opportunities of carbon labelling
