An Act amending the act of December 17, 1968 (P.L.1224, No.387), known as the Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, further providing for definitions, for unlawful acts or practices and exclusions and for private actions.

HB 783 amends Pennsylvania's consumer protection law to specifically prohibit deceptive environmental marketing claims and misleading "net zero" assertions by businesses. It defines key terms like "paltering" (truthful statements creating false impressions) and "reputational advertising" (highlighting environmental actions without connection to sales), and bans claims that lack clear scope identification, rely excessively on offsets, or lack substantiation. The bill allows consumers to sue for deceptive environmental claims without proving personal financial loss, with potential damages up to three times actual harm plus attorney fees. This directly affects businesses marketing products or services with environmental claims, requiring greater transparency in their advertising, labeling, and promotional materials.
