Consumer Disclosure WG
Mission
The consumer disclosure working group looks at ways of making customers aware, in a meaningful, understandable way, of the impact they bring about on the environment while going about their daily life. This could mean for instance, one's impact caused by :
the products they choose to buy,
the modes of travel they choose
the companies they choose to buy from
Heating / lighting of their home
The intent is to offer easy information for an individual to be able to see impact / options in order to take informed decisions to take personal action in the reduction of climate impact
As a background the working group continues to build on the good work done by various teams in the Open Climate Project. This WG has a relationship of being a node in the Collabathon.
Example Themes
Consumer information in E-commerce journeys
The environmental impact of a supply chains for an end consumer
Consumer information related to personal mobility
Mitigation of one's environmental impact
The role of media in disseminating environment related (dis)information e.g. greenwashing by corporations or portraying products to be green by using green backdrops
The role of identity in enabling consumer disclosure
