Tackling Plastics and Greenwashing

Deborah Meaden and Felicity Hannah end Series 1 with a look at how we can cut down on plastic. Plus how to spot a greenwasher and who's making firms stick to their eco promises?

Dragon’s Den investor Deborah Meaden and 5Live’s Felicity Hannah have teamed up to help us make the best and greenest use of our money and to find out how businesses are lowering their impact on the planet.

In the last episode of this series the pair answer listener questions about plastics. Is plant-based plastic a better choice, and how can we cut down on our use of single use plastics?
Deborah and Fliss also look at how we can get savvier at spotting greenwashing without trawling through reams of information on company websites.
And who is tracking big companies’ pledges to cut their emissions? Deborah and Fliss talk to PWC’s head of audit about who’s making sure those green promises are kept.

The Big Green Money Show will be back in July for another series.
