Master the language
An example of a credible campaign is Nespresso’s ‘’Do you recycle with us?”. It achieved top scores in all elements. Nespresso clearly showed it has mastered the “language of the climate normal”.

Most food brands obviously have not mastered the language. 80% of the campaigns we tested showed signs of greenwashing. This specific brand performs better but is still far from being credible. It scores lower than the benchmark in all elements.
