Abstract (summary)

This paper investigates how environmental quality competition between a greenwashing firm and a genuinely eco-conscious one affects the two firms' quality choices and consumer perceptions of environmental quality. Using a differential game theoretical framework, it highlights the significance of early detection mechanisms and regulatory interventions in mitigating the adverse effects of greenwashing, thereby fostering a more conducive environment for genuine environmental stewardship. Furthermore, this study explores the potential trajectories for both firms’ post-exposure, addressing the implications for consumer perceptions, market dynamics, and the overall corporate environmental responsibility landscape.
