After participating in the NC IDEA Labs startup bootcamp, I launched Conscience Cart to help ethical and green shoppers find businesses that share their values.WARNING - This app is not refined. I launched it on a shoestring. Also, there is a limited number of stores included.That said, you will find thoroughly-researched recommendations that you can trust. In the spirit of hacker culture, you can trust that the data are not manipulated to influence your buying decisions because the data producers created the data for purposes other than to guide shoppers. Please enjoy and consider supporting on Patreon to help me make it better. https://www.patreon.com/consciencecart
