A New Paint Color is Dubbed Climate Change from Behr
Home Depot is selling a paint color named Climate Change which is an off-white hue from Behr's collection. Understandably, it has left buyers confused about the name and the paint's association with the larger environmental issue. However, Behr does not have a direct connection with the painter's name or any other charitable causes.
The product is also not formulated and made with any special method that is especially eco-friendly. It is developed just the same as any other pigments from its collection as Climate Change is a shade just like any other standard offerings. The actually shade itself can be described as an off-white at a glance but more specifically, more of an icy green-grey color.
