The Positively Green Podcast Episode 3 - What is greenwashing and how do you avoid it?

Episode 3 of The Positively Green Podcast What is greenwashing and how do you avoid it
Today we’re going to have a conversation all about greenwashing. You may or may not have heard this term used before; and in our opinion it’s something that most people fall victim to when trying to switch to a greener lifestyle!

Organically Becca and I chat all about:
  • Reusable silicone bags (Stasher or Modern Kitchen)
  • Beeswax wraps
  • Diatomaceous earth for treating parasites
  • What is greenwashing?
  • Why it’s so important to learn about ingredients and their safety
  • Why you shouldn’t blindly trust labels and packaging
  • The dangers of hormone-disrupting ingredients
  • Laws about ingredient safety and the term “natural”
  • Common signs of greenwashing and terms to look for
  • Certified organic vs. non-certified
  • Questions to ask yourself to determine if a product/brand is up to your standards
  • Times we’ve fallen for greenwashing ourselves
  • An actionable step you can take today! Download the Think Dirty app to scan your products or search the Environmental Working Group (EWG)
  • Downloads and educational resources from Becca's Shop like the Green Beauty Ingredient Glossary

Tune in to this episode and learn how to spot the signs, understand what terms are used and what they mean, and how to properly vet companies and products to see if they are truly sustainable and non-toxic.
