And the Oscar for the most successful greenwashing goes to ....
Can actually anyone believe that you can posses an award for the significant contribution to whitewash your sins and brainwash population? No commence. There cannot be any comment as I hope no one is proud of the being in posses of Greenwash Oscar.
The phenomenon that i am considering at the moment relates to the tricky CorpWatch' practice that follows the flow of the media, corporation' activities and their green appearance in a public eye. They try to nab companies in a process of mystifying their real values or intentions.
The CorpWatch comments on the idea of the Greenwash Awards as follows:
CorpWatch gives out bimonthly Greenwash awards to corporations that put more money, time and energy into slick PR campaigns aimed at promoting their eco-friendly images, than they do to actually protecting the environment.

The most recent Greenwash Award went to Shell as a company had been accused of greenwashing their image financially supporting the of one of Britain’s most prestigious wildlife photography exhibitions however facing the environmentalist' protest, the company has abandoned its sponsorship.
