The 2060 Green Clean Team: Busting Greenwashing and Tech Turmoil
Topic 1: Greenwashing: Bringing Accountability to Deceptive Green PR
Topic 2: Regulating the Technologies of Today Within a Climate Crisis
The year is 2060, and climate has found itself atop the ranks in importance for the American people. As business heads seek to turn the consumer tides in their favor, the growing backlash against corporate pollution has risen tides of greenwashing across the commercial world. Simultaneously, technology’s exponential boom since the turn of the century is still being felt by the natural world, and now only worsens with each new innovation. You are a member of the Green Party, a now crucial player in the American political race that looks to address the environmental crisis head-on, and deal with the turmoil that follows. Behind your leadership, the Green Party must either grow beyond the mass of pollution, or be buried by the excess of the modern world.
