Woolworths' Environment Policy - corporate fiction

Woolworths claim to have a “corporate social responsibility” commitment (see the Environment and Community Report 2006 on their website). Part of the report is an environment policy which states:

Woolworths’ commitment to protecting the environment from processing impact is an important consideration in the manufacture, processing and supply of products to our business. Where possible, Woolworths supports the use of recyclable packaging. Processing considerations should also be given for recycling, reducing and reusing process inputs to reduce any impact on the outside environment

This just highlights the extent to which Woolworths is willing to lie to consumers, when you can see that clearly the products which go into their Select paper products do not meet the claims on the packaging. The logos on the packaging have been designed by Woolworths to indicate to consumers that the product has less of an impact on the environment.
