Greenwashing, Corporate Social Responsibility, Supply Chain.Abstract
In recent years, the public and government departments have been paying more and more attention to environmental protection, and there have been more academic studies on corporate greenwashing and corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the supply chain. We summarize the concepts, motives, consequences and governance methods of corporate greenwashing and the input research model of CSR in the supply chain, and point out the development trend of the two and the direction we can focus on in the future, which is of certain reference value in both theory and practice.
