Greenwashing

In the context of a book category, "Greenwashing" refers to literature that explores the deceptive practice of companies or organizations presenting an environmentally responsible public image while engaging in practices that are not environmentally friendly. Books in this genre often delve into case studies, exposing how businesses manipulate information, use misleading marketing tactics, or exaggerate their environmental efforts to appeal to eco-conscious consumers. These works aim to educate readers on identifying and understanding greenwashing tactics, encouraging critical thinking about corporate sustainability claims, and promoting genuine environmental responsibility. The genre may include investigative journalism, critical analyses, and guides for consumers to navigate the complexities of green marketing.

  1. 1. The New Climate War by Michael Mann

    The Fight to Take Back Our Planet

    A clear-eyed analysis of how fossil-fuel interests and allied actors have shifted from outright denial to a subtler campaign of delay and diversion—promoting individual blame, sowing doubt, greenwashing, doomism, and narrow techno-fix narratives—to block meaningful policy; the book exposes these tactics, explains why focusing solely on personal choices is insufficient, and calls for defending climate science, countering misinformation, and pursuing systemic political and economic solutions (strong regulation, public investment in clean energy, and mass civic engagement) to achieve real emissions reductions.
