Greenpeace sues Austria

87

There are new rules in the EU. The rules stop false green claims. This is called Green-washing. Austria uses the rules on 27 September. Greenpeace thinks the start in Austria is bad.

Old goods may sell for 3 years in Austria. They keep a green label in this time. This happens even when it is a lie. Greenpeace says: This tricks the buyer.

The group complains at the EU. A law expert says: The long Frist in Austria breaks EU law. Greenpeace wants a new law from Wolfgang Hattmannsdorfer.
