How to check this yourself
Sustainability claims are only as good as the evidence behind them. Before you buy:
- Prefer independent certifications with a public register (B Corp, Fair Trade, FSC, GOTS, USDA Organic) over self-declared badges.
- Check whether the claim covers the whole product or one ingredient, and whether packaging is genuinely recyclable where you live.
- Look for dated, measurable targets and progress reports rather than open-ended pledges.
