Ecolabels

Ecolabels are certification marks on products that indicate they meet specific environmental standards, reflecting eco-friendly practices in production, sourcing, or disposal. They help consumers identify goods that are better for the environment, such as being made with fewer pollutants, using sustainable materials, or conserving energy and water. Ecolabels promote responsible consumption by encouraging companies to adopt environmentally beneficial policies, and they support shoppers in making informed choices that reduce environmental impact. Examples include labels like the ENERGY STAR, FSC, or EU Ecolabel, each targeting different aspects of sustainability and environmental responsibility.
