This phenomenon exists on a spectrum, ranging from deliberate deceit to wishful thinking. Additionally, newer terms like "greenhushing" and "green wishing" have emerged.
Greenwashing is a deceptive practice where a company exaggerates or fabricates its environmental credentials to appeal to environmentally conscious investors and consumers. This can range from misleading marketing campaigns to outright false claims about sustainability efforts.
Sodium is 500 to 1,000 times more abundant than lithium, and its extraction is far less harmful to the environment. Unlike lithium, sourcing sodium does not involve earth-scarring mining practices. Natron's sodium-ion batteries are crafted from readily available materials such as aluminum, iron, and manganese, making them an eco-friendly choice.
