Good Shopping Guide

The Good Shopping Guide guides readers towards the most ethical brands from companies who do not cause harm to or exploit humans, animals or the environment. There are over 70 product sections (from Butter to Banks and Fax Machines to Fashion), which fall under the main sections of Good Home & Office, Good Energy, Good Travel, Good Money, Good Food & Drink, Good Health & Beauty and Good Fashion. Each product section includes an 'easy-view' summary table of the good, the bad and the ugly plus an in-depth table showing each company's involvement (or not) in the following areas: environmental reporting; genetic modification; membership of ethical schemes; nuclear power; animal welfare; human rights; armaments; political donations; boycott calls; and, other criticisms. The Good Shopping Guide 11 features a whole body of research from the Ethical Company Organisation and is backed by NGOs like Friends of the Earth and Christian Aid. Full colour throughout, the book includes many beautiful photographs of the natural world. The book is read by activists, consumers, businesses, NGOs and government and has over 80,000 copies in print.
