Purchasers and consumers are demanding goods and services with a lower environmental footprint, but the market is getting flooded with claims about constitutes a “green” product. This session will help participants sort through confusing claims about sustainable products. It will include a review of types of labels and what they mean, what to look for in labels and certifications, and new programs coming on line that will help all purchasers.
Representatives of the West Coast States Environmental Preferable Purchasing Collaborative will talk about how states are encouraging green products in state procurement solicitations.
Presenters: Alicia Culver, Responsible Purchasing Network (RPN); Joshua Saunders, GoodGuide, Karin Kraft, Washington Department of Ecology
