Context-dependent claim
klimaschutzbeitrag
Context-dependentStatements whose admissibility depends heavily on context and specific evidence.
What does “klimaschutzbeitrag” mean?
The term climate contribution describes financial support for climate projects and is often used as a more cautious alternative to neutrality claims. Under the EmpCo Directive permissibility depends heavily on whether the contribution is presented transparently, concretely and verifiably and cannot be misread as an offset of the company's own emissions; otherwise a risk of misleading arises.
Why this term is risky
Whether this claim is permissible depends heavily on context: the reference point (product, packaging or company), specificity and available evidence are decisive. Without a clear reference and proof, there is a risk of being misleading.
