Wash your hands knowing you’re not using #palmoil 🧐🫧 ALL PALM OIL is linked to #ecocide and #deforestation. “Sustainable” palm oil is a big fat greasy #greenwashing lie.

#SamAltman is trying wicked hard to convince folks that he's all about saving #Nature... Buying #JackieAndShadow's home and now this... Um, sorry Sam. It doesn't make up for the #NoisePollution, #WaterPollution, pollution from #EnergyConsumption , etc. for the #AIHouseOfCards... But folks are seeing right through that! #OpenAI flew influencers to a #NatureResort to fix its image. The internet called it #greenwashing. OpenAI flew a group of influencers to a $2,000-a-night wellness resort to warm up the public mood around #AI. Days before a reported $500bn #Datacentre deal, the internet called it greenwashing, and the creators got the backlash. August 4, 2026 "The event, branded 'Summer Camp,' ran at Wildflower Farms, a resort in New York’s #HudsonValley where rooms can top $2,000 a night, Business Insider reported. Creators posted farm-to-table dinners under bistro lights, a beekeeping session, and classes on OpenAI’s tools. They went home with branded canvas bags and jars of honey. "The videos were soft-focus and lighthearted. The comments were not. Across TikTok, Reddit, X and Instagram, people called the trip 'dystopian' and accused OpenAI of greenwashing. One commenter told TechCrunch the issue was timing: '#TheWorldIsOnFire. It’s not a great time to brag about your $5,000-a-night suite.'

Fossile Energien für Rechenzentren: Meta verlässt Klimaschutzinitative

https://www.golem.de/news/fossile-energien-fuer-rechenzentren-meta-verlaesst-klimaschutzinitative-2608-211530.html

Meta ist aus der RE100-Initiative, einem globalen Zusammenschluss von Unternehmen, die sich dem Ziel verpflichtet haben, ihren gesamten Energiebedarf aus erneuerbaren Energien zu decken, ausgetreten. Als Begründung nennt die Nachrichtenseite Rechargenews die zunehmende Verwendung von Erdgas für die Energieversorgung von Rechenzentren.

Da das Greenwashing mit den Zertifikaten nicht mehr funktioniert, steigt Meta eben ganz aus der Vereinbarung aus.

Alles nur ein Haufen Lügner.

#Meta #fossileenergie #Greenwashing

Tony “Abolish ICE” Arcieri🌹🦀 @bascule@mas.to · Jul 28, 2026
One of my biggest, most hated lies (particularly when spread by Bitcoiners) is that gas flaring is good for the environment. No, no it is not. This is the worst and possibly most successful bit of greenwashing next to single use plastics. Idiots will routinely spout “It’s good that they’re doing this and it’s better than the alternative!” Methane having a much higher GWP than CO2 doesn’t mean gas flaring is “good for the environment”. The real alternative is Flare Gas Recovery Systems (FGRS), which can at least capture the gas rather than wasting it. #ClimateCrisis #greenwashing

Grüne Namen machen fossiles #Gas nicht klimafreundlich. Ein Gericht hat nach erfolgreicher Klage der @umwelthilfe@mas.to festgestellt: Fossiles Erdgas darf nicht als „Ökogas“ vermarktet werden. #Greenwashing ist kein Kavaliersdelikt. Verbraucher:innen haben ein Recht auf echte Transparenz! 👉 https://www.t-online.de/heim-garten/aktuelles/id_101355102/oekogas-gericht-stoppt-werbung-fuer-fossiles-erdgas-bei-new.html

#BuzzBallz are unrecyclable, and claims to the contrary are #greenwashing say recycling experts "The company behind the bright, pre-mixed cocktails that have taken Gen Z by storm said they were recyclable on its website, but experts say this is not true. BuzzBallz cannot be recycled as the PET plastic ball cannot be separated from the aluminium lid, global environmental action body WRAP said." I do think the need some sort of legislation to stop people launching consumer products in new types of packaging that can't be recycled by existing infrastructure, and will in fact mess up existing recycling systems with cross contamination. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cr490335z1eo #alcohol #recycling

REMINDER: nearly all climate claims by meat and dairy giants amount to #greenwashing We’re DONE taking PR from methane‑spewing, water‑polluting, soil‑destroying corporations at face value: real change will come from people power stopping Big Ag’s expansion and a massive shift toward more plant‑based diets wherever possible.

‘Taking the mickey’: Inner-city council tears up e-bike deal https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/taking-the-mickey-inner-city-council-tears-up-e-bike-deal-20260714-p60fbu.html The City of Yarra has ended its farcical, greenwashing, multimillion dollar, six-year, on-and-off "trial" with Lime e-bikes. Previously, there was a brief suspension of the contract due to Lime failing to pick-up their trash that had been dumped inconsiderately in bad locations by customers, and because Lime got caught saturating the city with more hire vehicles than the contract permitted. And, it's been suspected by some people that Lime had also been dumping e-bikes: trucking them into suburbs and treating public footpaths as their own depot. This final cancellation of the Lime contract means several inner city suburbs of Melbourne will finally be rid of the problem of shitty people with shitty cycling skills and shitty attitudes to safety, who were riding shitty rental e-bikes and scooters, and making shitty decisions about where to dump them. #Melbourne #Yarra #Lime #EBikes #Greenwashing
