From the supplier: The Federal Trade Commission has issued voluntary guidelines for the food industry covering environmental marketing claims carried on food packaging. The regulations cover all aspects of communication on package labels, including brand names, words, and logos. The regulations do not have the force of law and are preempted by applicable local, state, and federal laws. Areas covered by the regulations include environmental claim substantiation and definitions of terms such as 'recyclable' and 'biodegradable.'
