Climate Counts Company Scorecard
Climate Counts launched its latest Climate Counts Company Scorecard today. This scores companies on a scale from zero to 100, based on 22 criteria relating to climate change. Consumers can see all the current company scores and download a pocket shopping guide at www.climatecounts.org. This seems to be currently mostly for US consumers but its a helpful project for consumers who want to reduce the environmental impact of their shopping.

That was very interesting to see some companies were actually addressing global warming with a good deal of concern.
Thanks for the link. It bears watching. An awful lot is still hype and window dressing from companies.
Most local companies I know of barely know what they do day to day, let alone their impact on the environment. One company says protecting the environment is a major strategy and we see its employees out digging a ditch and the mud is all flowing down the storm drain and into the creek
It's a long struggle.
