Who's with me?
Last blog of the year is a bit of a cri de cœur on the urgent need to ensure 2025 marks an end to the current period of 'greenhushing' from businesses, politicians, and campaigners. The public wants climate action - why not give it to them? www.businessgreen.com/news/4523538...
It's the saliency, stupid
From the US to the UK, polls show a large majority of the public want more climate action - green businesses, campaigners, and political leaders need to now work to push the issue up their list of pri...

Why 2025 was the Year of Greenhushing 🤫
Staying quiet about sustainability efforts can reduce momentum for change, but talking publicly comes with legal and reputational risks.

This is a stunning story. I've been tracking the "greenhushing" narrative for a while now: this is the idea that strict regulations on fake climate claims spooks companies into total silence; therefore we shouldn't regulate them.

Greenhushing—minimizing climate pledges—began in '22 as companies struggled to communicate climate goals amid pushback from rightwing groups. But, it's reversing. Only 13% have decreased sustainability efforts or public communication on green issues while 32% raised them.
