    Consumers aren't falling for smoke-screens of businesses claiming to be sustainable

    Consumers aren't falling for smoke-screens of businesses claiming to be sustainable


    A Sustainable Business Council survey, has found 60-percent of respondents support companies that are environmentally and socially ethical.

    This could simply be planting trees to neutralise carbon emissions, or paying employees a fair wage.

    Spokesperson Jay Cringle, says consumers can see through businesses claiming to be sustainable but aren't walking the talk.
