Pavel Castka - Supermarket Green-Wash




RNZ: Sunday Morning show

Summary: Pavel Castka says there are so many product labels making all kinds of eco-friendly claims that it's almost impossible to know which ones to trust - and what does "all natural" mean, anyway? Dr Castka has also been studying global eco-labelling schemes such as Fairtrade, and he talks to Chris about his concerns about the 'green-washing' of supermarket shelf items.
