Western focus: should this article have a broader scope?
[edit]This article focuses largely on western developed, democratic nations (with the exception of a section on Thailand). This presents the suggestion that greenwashing either does not occur elsewhere in the world, or that it is wholly a western problem/phenomenon. PetSematary182 (talk) 04:11, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Conflict of Interest -
[edit]![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. A reviewer felt that this edit would not improve the article. |
- What I think should be changed (include citations): As this author of this peer-reviewed article, I have a direct conflict of interest. This flowchart and its caption information will be valuable for readers of the greenwashing page. Thank you for your consideration. The file is here: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/File:Greenwashing_diagnistic_flowchart.png
The reference can be, for example: Spaniol, M. J., Danilova-Jensen, E., Nielsen, M., Rosdahl, C. G., & Schmidt, C. J. (2024). Defining Greenwashing : A Concept Analysis. Sustainability, 1–17. https://doi.org/10.3390/su16209055
- Why it should be changed:
The lack of a shared, operant definition for greenwashing has led to fragmented scholarly research, unclear guidelines for practice, inconsistent enforcement, and reactive policy frameworks, resulting in ineffective efforts to combat its growth. With the aim to prevent the further spread of greenwashing, the flowchart can distinguish similar but often conflated concepts from greenwashing. This can then help to organize accurate conversations, support investigations, categorize research, provide guidelines for practitioners, and support regulators’ case analysis.

- It's a picture of text that is espousing a particular POV - one that is not universally held among reliable sources on this subject. Per WP:UNDUE we must leave it out. - MrOllie (talk) 14:10, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
