It’s delusory to misrepresent either directly or indirectly, that a product offers a general environmental benefit. Your ads should qualify broad environmental claims or should avoid them altogether to prevent deception about the specific nature of the benefit. Furthermore, your ads shouldn’t imply significant environmental benefits if the benefit isn’t significant. For example, a trash bag is labeled “recyclable” without qualification. Because trash bags ordinarily are not being separated from other trash for recycling from a landfill or incinerator, it is unlikely that they will be used again. Technically, the bag may be “recyclable,” but the claim is deceptive because it asserts an environmental benefit where there is no remarkable or meaningful benefit.
