Humane-Washing

Humane-Washing

Avoid “humane-washing,” i.e. misleading consumers about a company’s animal welfare policies, misrepresenting the extent to which it supports animal protection (such as concealing animal testing practices). If any animal welfare claims are made, be specific about which animals are benefited and how, in context (or proportion) to what business practices could be changed to create a truly cruelty-free product or service (where nothing is taken from an animal).
