[edit] Expansion
Information was requested by others (in an article I'm merging in) on ASEAN's adoption of standards, and criticism that it was moving too slowly. I'm adding this note since requests like that belong on talk pages. -- Beland (talk) 17:08, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
Refering to the comment about the section on the European Ecolabel, that it should be shortened due to overlap. Would it make sense to start a new article on the European Ecolabel and then to shorten the section about it here?

[edit] Criticisms of Ecolabels.
I believe this is a crucial section to the article that we need. There are many news reports commenting on the lack of customer awareness and information on what each label indicates and its true impact as an ecolabeled product/service. [If you wish, I can post the particular articles here, but a simple Google search will reveal plentiful results]. And I believe it would also be worth to tie in a mention to the concept of greenwashing and false labelling that has been going on (according to the Greenwashing Report 2010, 95% of consumer products committed "at least one of the sins of greenwashing") I ask this because currently there is only one sentence in the article that refers to the Greenwashing article, which I think could do with a little more elaboration here.
