Katherine Kim+FollowThis 'Plastic-Free' Sweater Is 80% Plastic?!You ever see something so wild you have to double-check? Someone found a sweater labeled 'plastic free'—but the tag says it’s actually 80% plastic (acrylic and polyamide)! Talk about greenwashing. Turns out, tons of clothes sneak plastic in under names like polyester and nylon. Not only is it misleading, but those fabrics shed microplastics that end up everywhere, even in us. Should brands get called out for this, or is it just clever marketing? #Beauty #Greenwashing #SustainableFashion00Share
Samuel Gutierrez+FollowBillionaires’ Yachts: Gas Guzzlers in Disguise?Ever wonder what it costs to fill up a billionaire’s tank? Patrick Dovigi just dropped $435K on fuel for his new superyacht, once owned by Bill Gates. The kicker? This “eco-friendly” boat still burns through diesel like there’s no tomorrow. So much for green luxury—turns out, even the fanciest tech can’t erase the reality of massive pollution. Makes your next gas station stop feel a little less painful, right? #Business #Superyacht #Greenwashing10Share
laura54+FollowIs Plastic Recycling Just a Feel-Good Myth?Ever toss a plastic bottle in the recycling bin and feel like you did your part? Turns out, only about 6% of plastic actually gets recycled. A former EPA official says the plastics industry has been selling us the idea that recycling solves everything, while most plastic ends up as waste or microplastics in our food and water. The real money move? Cut down on single-use plastics and watch out for companies making big green promises that don’t add up. #Business #PlasticWaste #Greenwashing00Share
