OH SNAPS! The #EU just passed its Green Claims Directive banning #greenwashing - including carbon off-setting "carbon neutral" claims COUGH APPLE WATCH COUGH

For my industry, this will force more traceability to substantiate green claims. AKA a GOOD thing!

Good job @EU_Commission

@renwillis @EU_Commission Not a commission thing, Ren. It was a Parliament thing. The Commission is WAY more pliable to big money lobbying than the EP, even when the majority in the EP skews right (as it does right now).

@jorgecandeias @EU_Commission thanks! Don't know who's in charge of what there, but big news from a greenwashing front.
