Abstract

Greenwashing refers to information disclosures that are misrepresented by organisations to portray a public image of them promoting environmental responsibility; it has been discussed as problematic in terms of corporate social responsibility. Under the recent expansion of environmental, social, and governance investment and institutionalisation of sustainability disclosure, greenwashing has garnered increasing research interest. This study summarises the debate on greenwashing through a literature review and identifies future research issues for the prevention of greenwashing. A reliable framework for measuring, reporting, and verifying (MRV) sustainabilty disclosure is crucial for preventing greenwashing, with scope for further study of MRV.
