In our past blog post we told you more about the destructive side of the fashion industry and how your clothes are harming the environment. Therefore, the way how and what we are buying can influence whether we are contributing to the negative impact or whether we are helping to improve the situation. Good on You is an application that wants to support you in this challenge. They analyse and rate different brands based on their environmental friendliness and their ethical behaviour. Download the app to find out how well or bad your favourite brands are performing so you can make more sustainable purchasing decisions in the future.

Think Dirty

Cosmetic and hygiene products often include toxic ingredients that are not only harming you, but also the environment. One of those ingredients are also microplastics that are contaminating out water sources. Think dirty is an organisation that wants to spread awareness about this problem and introduce you to sustainable alternatives. Check out their app to get to know how to make smarter and more sustainable choices when buying cosmetic and hygiene products.

Giki Badges

Also, the food industry is contributing to environmental damage and an increased pollution. Thus, for people that are living in the UK, Giki developed an app that gives the possibility to scan the codes of products and get more insights on various production factors. This way, customers can easily detect how sustainable and ethical their choice of products is. Try out their app to shop more environmentally friendly.
