Sammanfattning: The following study aims to examine how influencer marketing contribute to an increased consumption in today’s society through their communication on social media, as well as how this communication can be seen as an expression of greenwashing. A multimodal critical discourse analysis has been conducted to look into and analyze the relation between how influencers encourage people to buy the products they are advertising and how they use their power to spread awareness about a sustainable lifestyle. The relevance of the study lies in the background of the climate changes and the study will therefore examine how encouragement for consumption becomes contradictory in the context of the study object, Therése Lindgren's, environmentally conscious everyday life and how this becomes an expression of greenwashing.    The result of the study shows that Therése Lindgren’s way of portraying the products she is advertising has a persuasive approach. In the posts that are environmental focused, Lindgren uses statistics and facts to strengthen her opinion to increase credibility and persuade her followers to live a more sustainable life. Furthermore, it can be assumed that Therése Lindgren's communication can give expression to greenwashing and that her posts can be a contributing factor to the increased consumption in today's society.
