This work towards an assignment plays from an article on greenwashing, some of the ideas that are presented in this text is the selective disclosure of information, use of empty/proof-less claims and the use of fake or worthless third party certificates and endorsements. 

Another idea that is mentioned in the text is "Max Weber's early warnings about the historic force of rationalisation and the difficult-to-resist power of capitalism and science when fused with the rhetoric of 'progress'."

This is the idea that I tried to capture in this poster as I feel that in the world today there are many people in positions of power that hold on to the idea that technology will save us from our consumption. In fact this is only benefiting the few of society and that we should embrace a relationship with our earth.
