SoS #14: Green Claims: A Challenger Playbook with Oatly
Description
Does the world on-pack green claims make you nervous?
We get it. Green claims are a minefield.
Today, we're bringing in a veteran of bold sustainability messaging to help us navigate the dark and somewhat dangerous world of sustainability comms. Shaunagh Duncan, Head of Sustainability at Oatly EU & I walks us through making strategic green claims, teaching us when to push boundaries and when to play it safe.
We cover how to :
- Define a bold and impactful communication style
- Walk the line between “greenwashing” and “green hushing”
- Approach on-pack PCFs
- Capitalise on the commercial opportunities of carbon labelling
