Better World Shopper is a research project that reviews companies and analyzes their sustainability and ethics. The companies are rated by how they handle five main categories: human rights, environmental consideration, animal protection, community involvement, and social justice. The research project is marketed to consumers who are concerned about sustainability and social justice.
The research project used a database that organizes and analyzes data about the companies. It then assigns them a grade - A through F - based on the results of that data. The ten worst companies for sustainability and eco-friendliness are specially featured on the website, as well as the ten best ones.
