Welcome to ethical.net!
We’re a not-for-profit project building a free and open platform for discovering ethical alternatives to stuff — whether that means buying from a social enterprise, charity shopping, or learning how to fix your old phone instead of buying a new one.
Who are we?
ethical.net is powered by a community of contributors who want everyone to have access to the information they need to shop and live ethically, easily.
