Example: Section in consumer issues To contribute to sustainable consumption, an organization, where appropriate, should: […] provid[e] consumers with information about products and services, including on: performance, impacts on health, country of origin, energy efficiency (where applicable), contents or ingredients (including, where appropriate, use of genetically modified organisms and nanoparticles), aspects related to animal welfare (including, where appropriate, use of animal testing) and safe use, maintenance, storage and disposal of the products and their packaging….
