Going Greener By Example

Going Green by Example explains a thing or two about how the programme works

For more PRODUCT INFORMATION, go to Ecomonkey

To get more green points buy green labelled products (At 100% cashback levels).

Get green points at a lower rate for orange and red rated products. You can't be pure all of the time.

Products are rated using independent schemes e.g. the EU Energy Label, the Soil Association, Fairtrade Foundation and Forest Stewardship Council and our own clever rules.

Use the clever simple search and filter tools and watch how the green rated products float to the top and the red rated ones to the bottom.

The green filter shows green rated products only. If you want more choice, use the orange filter to show all products in the "better half".

For more product information, including a brand or retailer rating, just click the title or image. Head over to the retailer's website if you are wanting to deepen your research, we'll try and remember who you are when you are ready to buy!

Products may also have extra descriptive "tags", in our little example: greenwash. Try clicking one.

Do users have a say? Sure they do.

1. Without signing up you can greenthumb or redthumb a product (currently those thumbs collect eggs - more eggs good - less eggs bad).

2. Without signing up, you can let us know about any kinks or strange stuff that has crept into the product listings: "Report product listing".

3. When you sign up you can rate, review, bookmark and tag products.

4. If you are really really keen, drop us a line giving us your reasons why you would like to be a Apture editor and add extra value to any of our pages.

We are already working new and fun ways to get you more involved.
