This document discusses greenwashing, which is when companies make false claims about being environmentally friendly to sell products. It defines greenwashing and provides examples of companies that have engaged in it. The document outlines the "Six Sins of Greenwashing" according to a 2010 Terrachoice study, which are hidden trade-offs, no proof, vagueness, lesser of two evils, irrelevance, and fibbing. It also provides tips to avoid being misled by greenwashing claims in real life, such as reading the fine print, doing independent research, and being wary of buzzwords and major event sponsors.
Greenwashing: What it is, how to avoid it, and how not to do itPaul Smith
In previous years, “going green” was something that other businesses did. Now it’s what every business wants to do. But in the rush to promote their business or product as green, many companies seeking to exploit this growing opportunity are by their very actions damaging the credibility and viability that truly green businesses offer. Paul Smith of GreenSmith Consulting explores “greenwashing” and its implications.
“Greenwash” is defined in the 10th edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary as the “Disinformation disseminated by an organization so as to present an environmentally responsible public image.”

Presentation on Green Marketing and eco-friendly products|Can marketing reall...Kartik Mehta
Purpose
– The purpose of this paper is to analyse the impact of green marketing strategies on consumer purchasing patterns in Mauritius. The present research also explores the possibility of introducing greener patterns of consumption into contemporary lifestyles in the current context where green products are increasingly available.
Design/methodology/approach
– This paper reviews the theory of green marketing to identify how customers are persuaded to purchase greener products. It also reports the empirical results of a consumer survey on green marketing strategies by the questionnaire method. The survey questionnaires were administered to 150 respondents visiting various hypermarkets and supermarkets. The questionnaires were processed and analysed with the statistical programme SPSS, using descriptive, correlation and factor analysis.
Findings
– The findings provide some interesting clues regarding customers’ perceptions on environmental concerns and green products. Further findings suggest that most consumers have expressed a great interest in the protection of the environment and they are strongly concerned about the environment and its degradation. Hence, business executives should host workshops and seminars so as to educate customers on environmental protection and environmental‐friendly products. Results also indicated an overall positive correlation between effective green marketing strategies and customers’ purchasing patterns for green products. Therefore, there is a powerful urge for companies to promote green branding, eco‐labelling and green packaging strategies in order to encourage a greener pattern of consumption among consumers in Mauritius.
Practical implications
– The paper suggests a stepping approach to consumer purchasing patterns for greener products could be exploited more within consumer groups that have strong environmental concerns and beliefs in Mauritius. The results also offer precious knowledge on the effectiveness of green marketing strategies which can assist both private and public enterprises in developing and designing appealing green products that will be favoured by customers.
Originality/value
– Although green marketing has been an important research topic for several decades, hardly any research has been focused on the impact of green marketing strategies on consumer purchasing patterns in the context of developing countries. This paper has analysed the strength of environmental concerns and beliefs and has provided some insights on green marketing strategies and the various managerial implications have been fully addressed in order to favour the consumption of greener products in Mauritius.

GREEN MARKETING - AN ANALYSIS OF CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR TOWARDS GREEN PRODUCTSTanushree Bhowmick
This paper was presented in the Ist International Conference on Business & Information Management (ICBIM), 2012, organized by NIT, Durgapur. This is basically a research paper aiming to contribute towards the growing ecological concern that most marketers want to address these days. It also tries to unveil consumer behaviour towards the purchase and consumption of eco-friendly products.
The roots of ecolabelling are found in the growing global concern for environmental protection on the part of governments, businesses and the public. As businesses have come to recognize that environmental concerns may be translated into a market advantage for certain products and services, various environmental declarations, claims and labels have emerged, such as natural, recyclable, eco-friendly, low energy, recycled content, etc.
Governmental, industry, NGO, investor and consumer efforts and awareness will serve as 5 key driving forces of sustainability in the months and years ahead.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

1. Research Scholar: Muhammed Sajid N
Supervising guide: Dr. Zakkariya K A
Green Washing:
The darker side of CSR
2. Plan for the day
• Green product & Green Marketing
• Green washing
• Corporate Instances
• Sins of Green washing
• Tips to avoid green washing in real life
3. Green Product
• “Green products are designed to reduce energy
consumption, use less natural resources, raise the
recycled materials, and reduce or eliminate toxic
substances, which are harmful to both the environment
and human health” – AMA
• “Green products contain elements that are not harmful
to the environment (Mahenc, 2008) and (Polonsky and
Rosenberger, 2001) made of materials that can be
recycled to provide product (Dangelico and
Pontrandolfo, 2010), (Chen and Chai, 2010). Its production
process is environmentally friendly (Gurău and
Ranchhod, 2005).”
4. Sustainable (Green) Marketing
• Marketing of Environment Friendly Products
• Started in 1960s in Europe
• Aims at focusing sustainable development
6. Going the GreenWay
• Mc Donald's started giving out its
products in a paper bag to the
customers instead of a polythene
bag, thereby doing “Green
Marketing” at a reduced cost.
• Energy Star certified products
7. Green washing
• When a company makes false claims that is doing “ Green
Marketing” in order to sell its products thereby fooling
the customers
• Disinformation disseminated by an organization so as to
present an environmentally responsible corporate image
- Poonam Anand Keller
15. Terrachoice Study 2010
• Investigated 4744 “ Green products” in US & Canada
• Found more than 95% are green washed
• In countries like US & Canada, who are having strong
market regulatory framework, green washing rate is
more than 95%.!
• So, what would be in India???
16. Six Sins of GreenWashing
The sin of the hidden trade off
The sin of no proof
The sin of vagueness
The sin of lesser of two evils
The sin of irrelevance
The sin of fibbing
Source:Terrachoice (2010)
17. The sin of hidden trade off
• Suggestion of being green, based on a single
environmental attribute, while blurring all other
parameters which are may be more important
• Eg.: Lexus SUV, Recycled Paper
18. The sin of no proof
• An environmental claim that cannot be substantiated by
easily accessible supporting information, or by reliable
third-party certification, commits the sin of no proof
• Eg.: Pampers Eco Friendly
19. The sin of lesser of two evils
• Claiming to be greener than other products in its
category when the category as a whole may be
environmentally unfriendly.
• Eg.: Organic Cigrattes, Electric Cars
20. The sin of vagueness
• Sin of vagueness is committed by every claim that is
poorly defined or broad that its real meaning is likely to
be misunderstood by the intended client.
• Eg.: Products endorsed with “ Chemical Free” tags
• Visa green Card
21. The sin of irrelevance
• The sin of irrelevance is committed by making an
environmental claim that may be truthful, but is
unimportant and unhelpful for customers seeking
environmentally preferable products. Its irrelevant and
thereby distracts the customer from finding out a truly
greener option.
• Eg.: CFC Free refrigerators
22. The sin of fibbing
• Fibbing is committed making environmental claims that
are simply false.
23. Why no root solution?
• Green washing is an unexplored area due to several
factors such as:
• Corporate lobbying
• Lack of evidence
• Regulatory loop holes
• Lack of knowledge
24. Tips to avoid Green washing in real life
• Read the fine print
• Research on web
• Beware of buzz words
• Relevance
• Beware of major event sponsors
• Certifications & Endorsements
25. Problem ‘Green’ Words
