I tend to assume incompetence rather than malice. The marketing person that wrote that piece of copy never worried about the lifecycle waste analysis of the project they were working on, because they trusted the CEO/founder that hired them, who said it was gonna be good for the environment. They probably aren't the type of person that worries about nor has the skills to do a lifecycle waste analysis.

Weaponized incompetence.

Yeah, I'm all for applying Hanlon's Razor, but in this case this seems like a clear case of "they had an incentive to say whatever made them look best and they sure followed it". "Weaponized incompetence" isn't a bad word for it.
