Royal Dutch Shell – misleading advertisement
In August 2008 the British Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) ruled that Royal Dutch Shell had misled the public by claiming that its oil sands project in Alberta was a “sustainable energy source”. Although widely used, “sustainable” had been deemed a “vague” and “ambiguous” term, in light of DEFRA’s advice that companies should avoid vague environmentally-friendly terms intended to simply give a good impression. They concluded the claim of sustainability was misleading “[b]ecause we had not seen data that showed how Shell was effectively managing carbon emissions from its oil sands projects in order to limit climate change”.
