☆ Opinion | What’s a Little Hyperbole Among Friends?

Gail Collins: So Bret, Donald Trump gets a roughly $355 million fine for fibbing about his fortune. Bret Stephens: Gail, I would never want to stop you from chortling, but here goes: I think the case was ridiculous and the verdict outrageous. It lends credence to the Trumpian belief that the justice system is rigged, which will help him politically. Gail: I know you’re worried all this will make him look like a martyr to a whole lot of voters. But I can’t help thinking a string of 91 pending felony counts has to also look pretty darned messy.

☆ Corporations are 'greenwashing' you. An expert explains how big companies mislead us into thinking they're making better choices for the environment when they could be making things far worse.

For example, a company may tout the $5 million in its renewable energy investments for the year. Lyon: Greenwashing is any communication that leads the listener to adopt an overly favorable impression of a company's greenness. You may get a company that says: Look at this, we invested US$5 million in renewable energy last year.

You can look at the whole movement toward renewable energy and companies that produce solar or wind energy.
